To me, chopped salads will always be the best salads. The crunchy, small pieces of greens coated in sweet or tangy dressing, topped with crispy tortillas or toasted seeds, and creamy cheeses are the ideal combo of flavors and textures. The sensory experience alone is enough to have me eating chopped salads every week, not to mention all the powerful nutrients these salads pack.\n<\/p>\n
While I aspire to be the kind of cook who meal preps my lunches every week, the reality is that I am not that person. And thanks to store-bought salad kits, I don\u2019t have to be. When I first stumbled on ALDI\u2019s Little Salad Bar Southwest Chopped Salad Kit, I expected it to be pretty similar to the ones I get at other stores, but I was pleasantly surprised when it packed a far stronger Southwest flavor. Now I always throw a couple of bags in my cart during every visit.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n Simply Recipes \/ Aldi<\/p>\n <\/span> Price:<\/strong> $3.29 for a 12-ounce bag<\/p>\n Why I Love It:<\/strong> The affordable salad kit is delicious and filling as a standalone lunch or dinner side dish. I especially love the creamy, spicy Greek yogurt jalapeno dressing.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n <\/p>\n With crisp green and red cabbage, carrots, crunchy tortilla strips, and a shredded Mexican cheese blend, it\u2019s easy to see why this salad is my favorite. What stands out the most is the creamy, spicy Greek yogurt jalapeno dressing. It\u2019s tangy with just the right amount of spice.\n<\/p>\n This salad keeps well in the fridge as leftovers. Most salad kits range from $6 to $7 per bag, and if you don\u2019t eat them right when you make them, you have to throw leftovers away because they\u2019ll get soggy in the fridge. This $3 ALDI Southwest Salad Kit will stay fresh in the fridge for the next day, even when fully prepped and dressed.\n<\/p>\n <\/p>\n I eat it as-is for lunch all the time. I just toss everything together with tongs, making sure all the ingredients are coated in the amazing dressing, and it fills me up for the afternoon. It\u2019s also a great side dish or a full meal when topped with a protein like steak, chicken, or tofu.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n But my absolute favorite way to enjoy the Southwest Salad Kit is as a topping on tacos. I toss all the ingredients and dressing together and add the mixture to a taco shell with ground beef. I love this method because I don\u2019t need to chop up individual vegetables or shred cheese by hand. The salad kit does all the work.\n<\/p>\n To learn more about our approach to product recommendations, see HERE.<\/em>\n<\/p>\n<\/div>\n #ALDI #Find #Buy #Time<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" To me, chopped salads will always be the best salads.
