TOTAL TIME

Prepare four meal prep salad containers and four small jars for the salad dressings.

Divide the arugula greens between the four containers.

Place cherry tomatoes in each container, separating the arugula and marinated mozzarella cheese balls to avoid wilting the greens.

To make the dressing, in each small jar, combine 2 teaspoons of extra virgin olive oil, 1 teaspoon of aged balsamic vinegar, a pinch of minced garlic, finely chopped fresh basil leaves, and salt and pepper to taste.

Seal the salad dressing jars and the glass containers, then refrigerate them until use. The salad should last for 3-4 days.

Optional add-ons: Add sliced avocado or grilled chicken when you're ready to enjoy the salad.
