Sunday is my cooking day!

Sundays I usually spend the whole day preparing meals for the next week. Today was no exception. I'll post the recipes and thoughts on the stuff I made from "Against All Grain" cookbook later this week but I must say so far they look good, smell good and were super easy! 
I've mentioned before that my husband can eat the same thing every day for months and currently that something is salad jars! Easy enough for me! He travels most weeks but when he is home he always requests them. I usually make him 4 jars, 2 with a buffalo chicken Cobb and 2 with something else. This week he basically got 4 of the same thing. Only difference is the chicken, buffalo chicken vs sun dried tomato chicken. 
Order of the salad jar is very important to keep things fresh and not sogg. Lettuce should always be towards the top. Here is how I make his....
2 tablespoons ranch or blue cheese dressing
A handful of blue cheese crumbles 
Chicken with sauce of choice (buffalo, Italian etc)
Sliced tomatoes
Sliced eggs
Celery
(Oops I just realized I forgot red onion) 
Lettuce of choice (romaine)
Bacon/croutons/cranberry or any topping like that you wish

Sometimes I add corn or beans or peas, it really depends on what I have on hand. But he really likes the buffalo chicken with blue cheese mix. I also have avocado for him to add upon eating if he wants.
