Recipe: Mason Jar Tex Mex Salad

Why does everything look cuter in a mason jar?  I’m not sure, but all I know is this lunch is too stinkin’ adorable!  Seriously, this is the smartest (and cutest) way to pack a salad for lunch.  The dressing stays at the bottom to preserve freshness, and when you are ready to grub, simply shake the jar up and toss everything together.  Practical, and pretty!
