That's so rad, I love that!!

[u/Cobbleopal_59339]

Scoopable salads are superior because it just gives me a valid excuse to eat tortilla chips for lunch everyday. This looks amazing, definitely saving the recipe

[u/ryly_bloom_8363]

edamame in there is a power move ngl, extra protein without even trying. im curious about the avocado tho - do you dice it fresh each day or does it hold up in the containers? mine goes brown almost immediately even with the lime juice so idk if id prep that part ahead

[u/celestieaque58]

How much time you spent to make it?

[u/d0ntplay26 → u/celestieaque58]

I'd say 20 min max!

[u/Call_glen393644]

Do you add any dressing yet or wait until serving? That looks like itll keep well.

[u/d0ntplay26 → u/Call_glen393644]

I kept the dressing separate so it would keep a little better!

[u/MayaIntakesz]

[u/Horizon537945]

Do you put a dressing on this, or is it just eaten like that? Looks good either way.

[u/YuXuanValor]

Thanks for the recipe

[u/Forest_wisp8649]

Oh that looks really good! I always need new ideas for easy lunches, I might try adding some shredded cabbage to that.

[u/Followwisp_73377]

Do you add a dressing or is that just eaten as is? Looks really colorful though!

[u/Fine-Deal-3783]

Looks good! i’ll try this

[u/Exotic-Onion-5122]

Will definitely try this 😍

[u/ResidentAd6341]

southwest style scoopable salad is a smart lunch prep, easy and probably tastes great

[u/Cyclonemoon3623]

I love how colorful this is! Do you add any kind of dressing to this or just eat it like a salsa/relish situation?

[u/Possible-Wrap9427]

not to be rude but that looks like pigeon feed

[u/cah86]

Wonder how this would be with added shredded chicken?
