Twenty Delicious Take-Along Salads

Blog· Food and Drinks

As someone who is always on the go, eating healthy is a struggle. It’s so much easier to be able to drive through a fast food then to bring your own food but I’m not a fan of fast food. I don’t like the way that I feel after I eat it and I know that my body needs more nutrition added.

Meal planning has been key to keeping me on track when it comes to eating healthy and one thing I’ve added to daily menu is salads. I actually love salads and eat one almost every day. While they aren’t always the easiest thing to take on the road, there are lots of great take-along salads!
