I use Ball wide mouth jars. Not sure of the size, but they are 6 1/2 inches tall. Love making salads for the week! So far I've just made 5 jars at a time but next week I'm going for 7. I only put two TB of a Italian style dressing in the bottom and then after I tip the jar over into a salad bowl, I add more dressing - usually ranch.Tozihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02019758775696200102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076663117923356954.post-19477724772372047412015-07-30T06:18:21.429-07:002015-07-30T06:18:21.429-07:00Those mason jar salads look so yummy!

Michigan is one of the top fruit producing states in the country. Michigan blueberries? Michigan Peaches? Cherries? You can't throw a stone two feet without either- a) hitting a roadside stand of people selling local goods, either from their backyard or just plain local. or b-) a legit fruit market. <br /><br />Please, if you're in MICHIGAN, buy the GOODS. SUPPORT THEM. :)<br /><br />Sincerely,<br />Someone else from Michigan who knows good local produce is NOT scarce. <br /><br />http://www.bigpictureagriculture.com/2011/05/map-of-largest-fruit-producing-states.htmlAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13845991385849182382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6076663117923356954.post-66039932156086719222013-09-30T04:06:20.673-07:002013-09-30T04:06:20.673-07:00The mason jars sort of vacuum seem themselves b/c ...The mason jars sort of vacuum seem themselves b/c of how the lid is made.
