As a foodie/food blogger/person who eats food, one of my first concerns about going back to school was what food I’d have time to eat. I’m looking at 12 hour days and a wallet that’s less than excited to open up for daily trips to the university cafeteria. So I’ve started experimenting with on-the-go type meals that I can scarf down on the train or between classes. Enter, this Spiralized Zucchini Caprese Salad in a Jar. I guess salad in a jar was a huge trend in 2012. But this was back when I was a sophomore in college, well-acquainted with the all-you-can-eat cafeteria buffets (and the freshman 15), and had no need for frugal, efficient lunches. But now I’ve left the nest and I’m off my parents’ phone plan and my sole income is as a food blogger, so I’m not as quick to eat out anymore. So even if I’m a bit behind on the times when it comes to portable salads, this salad in a jar is my solution to busy, broke master’s student days! These Saprese salads take zucchini noodles to the next level. Let’s cook!
