GTKY: favorite store-bought pre-made salad

JaneShopsJaneShops member
in April 2015 Moms
Might be the pregnancy, maybe the prenatals. But having a tougher time eating a nutritious lunch at work. Been picking up 2-3 pre-made salads from the market /trader joe's & they've been working well. Any favorites? Any recommendations?

    Publix macaroni or potato salads are heavenly! All of them too.

    Currently munching on Trader Joe's kale and edamame salad, with sweetened dried cranberries, grape tomatoes, almonds, scallions, and a lemon herb dressing

    Warm chickpeas, hard-boiled egg, chopped tomatoes and cucumbers,
    parsley, red onion and garlic croutons, served with tahini and lemon
    olive oil dressing

    Sounds and looks amazing, Like deconstructed hummus dip

    I miss the kale salad with chicken with the spicy dressing from TJ's. I also like the harvest salad with grains. I want TJ's in Canada!!!

    @souptin‌ are you talking the SoCal Aroma? If so I'm missing it BIG time.

    @JaneShops‌ yes it's pretty amazing! Wish there was a Publix near you! I'm going to try kale chips...never had them.

    Costco sometimes has giant bags of yummy salad in their refrigerated produce section. The one with raisins, shaved Brussels sprouts, and a creamy dressing is fantastic!

    I'm horrible. I need to start getting some premade salads. I've been eating too much bad foods with only a few healthy snacks like carrots and apples

    @caridura84‌ I've baked my own kale chips, seasoned with olive oil & salt. Great potato chip alternative

    @mrsslushie‌ I totally know what panera salad you're talking about. Bought the dressing from the market but just Not the same. Unfortunately no panera near my work ;T

    @Ncountrygal‌ that Kale Brussels sprout craisin salad is one of my favorite costco buys. Amazing poppyseed dressing. Mine comes with 2 separate packets which make it easier. My goto potluck salad :)

    Unfortunately ladies, today I got myself Mc-d. Chicken nugget mini meal, was craving me some fries & BBQ sauce. Got a bottled water instead of soda, does that count? Hehe

    @snegde‌ i initially was super careful avoiding all deli foods, but then my ob told me the stress & anxiety might not be worth it if the source is reputable. That listeria rates are quite low in my neighborhood

    So actually, I've been treating myself to some Mac salad (freshly prepared & promptly eaten) from the grocery deli & local Hawaiian restaurant
