Easy TO GO Salads For The Cooler With No Cleanup

So, this past weekend the “3 Ring Circus” (that’s what I lovingly refer to as my family of 3) hit the road to visit my brother and his family. One of the things that made this trip so special was the fact that we got to stay on their houseboat. Boy, did we have fun! If you’ve ever been boating or anywhere that requires food in a cooler you know it is essential to make the food count. I am always looking for ways to make the food on the boat delicious, easy, and no cleanup. We are all trying to eat a bit healthier right now. So for this trip, I put my thinking cap on and came up with these Easy TO GO Salads. From salad, to container, to cooler, to trash. Nothing to carry home for cleanup. You are gonna want all the details!
