Instructions

  1. In a small jug, combine the olive oil, lemon zest, lemon juice, vinegar, Italian seasoning, salt, and pepper. Whisk to emulsify, then divide the dressing among 4 tall jars.
  2. Add layers of ingredients into the salad jars as follows: beans, corn, onion, kale, cooked quinoa, tomatoes, cucumber, and hemp hearts.

Notes

  • Store the Italian salad in weck jars, mason jars, or meal prep containers for up to 4 days. If using a container other than a jar to store the salad, we recommend storing the dressing separately and adding it right before serving. To serve, pour the salad out from the jar into a bowl to enjoy, or stir it together in your meal prep container.
