Weekly Salad Bar Prep for my Family of 11

  • Salad prep for the week. To be clear, before we bought the stand-alone salad bar, we had a “salad bar” in our main fridge. It was a drawer in the fridge that contained everything one needed to put a quick salad, sandwich, wrap, ect. together. Same concept. Check my Amazon Store Front (link below!) for some options that may work for your family, no matter how large or small! 🥗

I love the cooking videos, would love to see more cleaning or organizing too- its definitely something I always need tips on with managing a house of many people- if you were taking suggestions haha. have a blessed day!

    How cool! The setup is great! You’re teaching your kids the most valuable skill they can have for a successful life. So many people overlook actually teaching their kids how to cook. Once you are comfortable feeding yourself, many things in life become much easier. That could have been me and my dad, with him swatting me when I ate more than I prepped!
