Evergreens Sombrero Salad Meal Prep

PREP

Wash, dry and cut lettuce. One head of lettuce is about 3 salads (lunch for one person for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. Too much more and the cut greens wilt)

Seed and dice 1-2 jalapenos

wash grape tomatoes (they keep better whole, versus dicing a big tomato)

dice cheddar cheese into cubes

thaw frozen corn (if you are prepping ahead, then you can leave frozen and they'll thaw in the fridge)
