If you have any leftovers from these keto meal prep salads, I recommend keeping the salad stored in glass mason jars. Doing so preserves not only the freshness, but the quality too!
For my salads, I found the 16 oz glass jars to be the perfect size. Any large jam or glass jar should work just fine though!
After placing in jars, be sure to refrigerate this dish. I love to make these meal prep jars the night before and enjoy the next day. The flavors infuse together and the cucumber is still nice and crunchy.
Store in the refrigerator overnight, and be sure to seal the jars with a lid!

Sometimes when I make this salad, I choose to enjoy it right away rather than using it for meal prep! When I do, I love to serve it with my favorite source of protein, like these air fryer honey garlic salmon, chicken 65, or hot and fast brisket recipe.
I recommend serving it with any high protein dish for a complete, filling meal!
How to make keto meal prep salads
Cut cucumber into quarters, yielding 4 total pieces of cucumber. Scoop out the seeds of the cucumber with a spoon and discard.

In a small bowl, mix all the dressing ingredients together.
Place your meal prep jars on a flat surface. In each jar, add layers of cucumber, green pepper, tomatoes, onion, and olives. Drizzle dressing and sprinkle feta cheese atop ingredients. Repeat process so you have 2 layers of each ingredient in each jar.
