I found your channel just today and I am literally OBSESSED by your recipes 😁I think your ideas are brilliant!I am Greek and love the fact many of your recipes or ideas are Greek inspired😍😍😍 lots of love from Germany!!!!
Actually the lettuce thing is: during the 16thcentury you weren't suppose to use a knife with your lettuce because the vinegar (dressing) made the silver rusty and knives were made from silver at the time. So this is why you are not suppose to chop it, just a tradition. (I hope I'm understandable lol)
The knife is what makes the lettuce wilt. Studies have even been done to test this. Cut lettuce with a knife lasted 1 day less than lettuce cut with a lettuce knife (plastic) and 8 days less than ripped lettuce.
When you rip lettuce, you are tearing along the 'seams' of the cells, so you aren't breaking into the cells. Cutting rips into the cells, causing browning and wilting.
I'm hooked! Thanks for your healthy recipes, making things very easy and saying what can be substitutes in or out of the recipes. You're awesome! Much success!
I love that you put everything in mason jars as a student this is so perfect for me because I hate taking big Tupperware makes my bag pack so heavy plus everything looks so yummy & pretty
I just wish I could find jars like those you have here in Sweden. I loooove the idea to make things in jars because you can keep them in the fridge, take them to work easily and I just don't like the idea of using plastic around my food. Love your recipies, I got hooked after the first one I was. Great job on making yummy foods that are healthy and easy.
this is a great idea for my kid's school lunches. I would probably use the same ideas and make them in a smaller jar for them. thanks for this video. It will make lunches a little more fun for them as they would have to shake it first and then eat it. only problem now that I'm thinking of it is that the jars are glass. will need to find some plastic containers. lol
These look so bomb I'm going to make these for my daughters lunches this year! The next time you make it could you maybe show how you would eat it from the mason jar? I mean with all of the dressing at the bottom and it being so full would shaking it really get everything combined?
Yes, it would as long as you leave some room at the top of the jar, it should be fine. Maybe before packing it into the lunch box try to shake it a little bit to see if it'll work and adjust how much you put into the jar as you get comfortable w it.
you can do that too and that's probably what i would do just bc its easier , but this style is supposed to be for presentation and so the ramen noodles in one of the recipes dont get soggy bc of the dressing
I usually turn my jars upside down for a few minutes before I'm ready to eat so that the dressing/oil/whatever at the bottom can run down and coat the rest of my salad.
yum yum gimme some!!!! definitely wanna try these except no where to go!!!! they look really healthy which is great in my case. pending craniotomy in the middle of the month and these will be great especially that Asian inspired one!!!!
You know sometimes I think, "why does my favorite kitchen pixie call herself a GEEK?" Then you say something like "OLIVE THE FLAVOR" and I am reminded....cus you're bleeping AWESOME,😆!
I made the o/nite oatmeal for the first time with almond milk no yogurt,frozen berriesand mango. it was wonderful. Next time I plan to add no/fat Kefir instead of yog. Now I can't wait to make a bottled salad. However I will "ALWAYS" leave room at the top for dark leafy greens.
Wow these look so delicious! I don't really like salads very much (which has made dieting rather difficult in the past), but I sure do like pasta lol. I'll definitely have to give these a try, especially that first one!
I have always heard that it is the metal in the knife that turns the lettuce brown. If you use a plastic knife, or maybe ceramic, it helps to prevent that.
Great ideas as always! Also could you do a video about your favourite homemade dressings? Because store bought ones always have a lot of unnecessary additives.
Hi Tereza, of course! I actually have two videos featuring some of my favourite homemade dressings. You can check them out here: th-cam.com/video/P2TMMFGXflQ/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/cjlv95oTREU/w-d-xo.html
Hi, Sara. Those salads look really beautiful. How big is your request list, and when will you make my healthy Watermelon Cheesecake? Have a good day, Sara. 💖💖💖
Domestic Geek, have you heard of the hack where you can fit empty single serve applesauce plastic cups on top of the wide mouth mason jars and add your dry add ons that way? (like croutons)...I know!!! Awesome, right? The screw on lid fits perfectly right on top to secure it nicely. SO COOL!!!!!!! And recycles.....SO many ideas with that too.... Can you do a video on that with your creativity? Perfect timing with back to school.....
i love how much you love greek cuisine. i am from greece and every now and then i see in your videos a lot of greek ideas.
I absolutely love using Greek flavors! Thanks so much for watching!
The idea of taking these to work ALMOST makes me excited for work!
Yah!! I hope you enjoy them :)
This makes me miss back to school. Really enjoyed the video. Just started a channel too; croissants, macaron, eclairs, marshmallows etc! :)
food is life, food is everything, food is happiness, food is nice, food is love, food is amazing
Definitely trying the first one! They all look DELICIOUS.
I love how your personality shines through! Great video.
Thanks so much!

I'm in love with your look, like a Tinkerbell and that's so cute tink is gorgeous so are you
I love Greek salads, I am pretty sure I am going to love the Greek pasta salad!!!
I loved how you added the bit about sustainably sourced tuna ❤️ so thoughtful
Totally clever way to have things ready for a busy day or week. Thanks , making life easier is what it's all about. Thank you for sharing.
I hope those jars aren't over stuffed with all that deliciousness. It might not get mixed when you shake it.

I didn't know that ! I always heard my version (I'm french) but maybe both are true ! :)

Awwwww come on now.
I'm hooked! Thanks for your healthy recipes, making things very easy and saying what can be substitutes in or out of the recipes. You're awesome! Much success!
I'm so glad you have been enjoying all of the recipes! Thanks so much for the support!
I love that you put everything in mason jars as a student this is so perfect for me because I hate taking big Tupperware makes my bag pack so heavy plus everything looks so yummy & pretty
I agree, I absolutely love using mason jars!
Where can you buy them? I've never ever seen them! Help!
+ingrid you can buy them at Michaels I've seen them there as well as the 99 cent store or target

Have to try this once I get back to school! They all look amazing and my mouth is already drooling... 🤤😋😆
Best salads in a jar I have found so far.
I just wish I could find jars like those you have here in Sweden. I loooove the idea to make things in jars because you can keep them in the fridge, take them to work easily and I just don't like the idea of using plastic around my food. Love your recipies, I got hooked after the first one I was. Great job on making yummy foods that are healthy and easy.
Great salads!!!! Cooking and puns, my two favorites.
The last two recepes look really delicious! I love that you include vegetarion recepes in almost every video!
I'm so glad you enjoyed the recipes! I hope you get a chance to try them out!
Wonderful Ideas here. Love these pasta salads in a jar, so very yummy. Great job!

Wow, such a great idea to store those in jars, yum😋
Thanks!
All of the salads look really good. They are great ideas for work lunch. I am always looking for something new.
I hope you're able to try them out!
Those are perfect for my daughter!!! She is going to love these, and there is so much room for variation 💜😍💕
I absolutely love experimenting with different ingredients! Let me know if you come up with any yummy variations!
+The Domestic Geek Do you think Avacado would be ok to add to one of these or would they brown too quickly?
Good idea.. i love it...the salad receipe. Can use bowl jar is perfect.
defently making these for school, these look absolutely amazing, Thank you!!!
you can chop the lettuce with a plastic knife. contact. with the steel from the knife is what causes the lettuce to wilt quicker. Great video!
this is a great idea for my kid's school lunches. I would probably use the same ideas and make them in a smaller jar for them. thanks for this video. It will make lunches a little more fun for them as they would have to shake it first and then eat it. only problem now that I'm thinking of it is that the jars are glass. will need to find some plastic containers. lol
How can someone dislike this video??? Amazing ideas as always, love your channel! :-)
Thanks,these are so helpful!I hate school lunches!
No problem! I'll be sharing more ideas all month long!

+Rayna S y dont we just mix it and then put it in a jar
you can do that too and that's probably what i would do just bc its easier , but this style is supposed to be for presentation and so the ramen noodles in one of the recipes dont get soggy bc of the dressing
typically I take a container/ or bowl in my lunch kit and dump my salad in it
I usually turn my jars upside down for a few minutes before I'm ready to eat so that the dressing/oil/whatever at the bottom can run down and coat the rest of my salad.
you make healthy stuff look so delicious love ya
yum yum gimme some!!!! definitely wanna try these except no where to go!!!! they look really healthy which is great in my case. pending craniotomy in the middle of the month and these will be great especially that Asian inspired one!!!!
