Quick, Simple, and Easy: Mason Jar Meals
—Ted Pigott
In the past, most people took their meals to work or to school in brown paper bags or in lunch boxes. Recently, however, more and more people are turning to a different kind of container for their meals—Mason jars! These jars are made of thick glass. They also have a special lid that seals completely, which makes the jars perfect for storing and transporting food.
Mason jar meals have become popular because they are so easy to make. All you have to do is layer the ingredients on top of each other in the jar. For a salad, you start by pouring the salad dressing into the bottom of the jar. Then, you put in the other ingredients, such as corn, tomatoes, or mushrooms, and finish with the lettuce on top. This way, your lettuce won't get wet and soft from the dressing. When you're ready to eat your salad, simply mix the ingredients in the jar and enjoy!
Mason jars are also great for cereal, oatmeal, and various other foods. It's no wonder, then, that meals in Mason jars have become a favorite among busy people.
玻璃罐餐點——快速、方便又簡單！
在過去，大多數的人用棕色紙袋或午餐盒裝自己的餐點帶去工作場所或學校。然而，最近愈來愈多人開始用一種不同的容器來裝餐點──金屬螺蓋玻璃罐（Mason jars）！這些罐子是用厚玻璃製成的。它們還有一個特殊的蓋子可以完全密封，這使得罐子很適合儲存和運送食物。
玻璃罐餐點受到歡迎是因為它們很容易製作。你只需要在罐子中將食材一層一層疊上去。要做沙拉的話，先將沙拉醬倒進罐子底部。然後加進其他食材，像是玉米、番茄或蘑菇，最後將萵苣放在最上面。這樣一來，你的萵苣就不會因醬料而變溼變軟。當你要吃沙拉時，只要將罐子裡的食材攪拌一下就可以享用了！
玻璃罐也很適合裝穀類食物、燕麥和各式各樣的其他食物。因此，玻璃罐餐點變成忙碌人士的最愛就不足為奇了。
