Bagged salads are pre-washed and convenient, requiring no cutting or washing. They can be used to make quick and easy meals, and come in various types including spinach salads. They are useful for camping and come in resealable packages.

A bagged salad is a commercially produced confection of salad greens that are pre-washed. Alternatively, you can also wash your salad greens and put them in a bag by themselves to take on a picnic or keep handy in your fridge. However, most people buy bagged salad for the convenience it provides.

A bagged salad requires no washing or cutting, and all the greens you need are in the bag. Some people like to wash their bagged salad ingredients before using, but you can also buy organic bagged salads. Of course, bagged salads don’t usually contain the more perishable greens like tomato or cucumber, but most people are prepared to add other ingredients to salad greens.

You can make many quick and easy lunches plus self-cooked dinners when you start with a bagged salad. Add cooked shrimp and boiled eggs to a shrimp salad, or Caesar dressing and croutons to a Caesar salad. You can top off your meal with crusty bread or garlic bread, a drink, and a simple dessert like ice cream or sherbet.

In addition to bagged salads with iceberg or romaine lettuce and julienned carrots, you can also buy spinach salads. Spinach provides excellent nutrition and you can lightly steam it if you want to serve it hot. To make a classic cold spinach salad, simply add sliced ​​hard-boiled eggs, cooked bacon bits, chopped fresh tomato, and serve with ranch dressing. Cornbread is a good alternative to garlic or crusty bread.

A bagged salad is especially useful for camping as it can stay sealed and fresh in the cooler until you’re ready to use it alongside barbecued steak, chicken, or just about anything. Many bagged salads come in a convenient resealable package, but some need to be opened with scissors and resealed with a tie or clip. Most packaged salads come in two sizes, so you can buy enough for a large crowd or just a few people.
