Mango–Black Bean Salad in a Jar

Salads in a jar are one of my favorite lunches. They are crispy, delicious, and you can make them days ahead. 

Mango–Black Bean Salad in a Jar

Makes 1 serving

3 tablespoons White Balsamic Vinaigrette (recipe below)

2 tablespoons diced red onion

¼ cup chopped red bell pepper

¼ red cabbage, shredded

½ cup cooked black beans

¼ cup corn

½ avocado, peeled, pitted, chopped, and tossed in lime juice

¼ cup peeled, pitted, and chopped mango

3 tablespoons pepitas

2 cups chopped romaine lettuce

2 tablespoons sliced green onions

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

Layer all of the ingredients in a quart- size Mason jar. When ready to serve, dump the contents of the jar into a bowl and toss to coat vegetables, fruit, beans, and grain with the vinaigrette.

White Balsamic Vinaigrette

Makes about ¾ cup

½ cup extra- virgin olive oil

¼ cup white balsamic vinegar

1 teaspoon maple syrup or raw honey

½ teaspoon Dijon mustard

Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Combine the oil, vinegar, maple syrup, and mustard in a pint- size Mason jar and shake well. Season with salt and pepper.

Variations: Balsamic vinaigrette can be made with red balsamic vinegar. If using a flavored balsamic vinegar, omit the sweetener. You can also substitute raw apple cider vinegar and play with the mustard. I like to use spicy brown or even whole- grain mustard instead of Dijon.
