Thai Chopped Chicken Mason Jar Salad with Chili Vinaigrette
All of your favorite flavors come together in one jar! This Thai Chopped Chicken salad is loaded with veggies and packed with flavor. Taste the hints of chili and lime with a touch of sweetness in this easy-to-pack on the go meal!
Mason jar salads are really just perfect. I say this honestly. They are in my opinion the best way to pack a salad for your on-the-go lunch! The lettuce never gets soggy, and they last for 4-5 days in the refrigerator! Simply pour the contents into a bowl and devour.

These look absolutely fabulous! I love the chili vinaigrette you made for this salad–so flavorful!
Great graphic, great recipes! Can’t wait to share with my readers.
Such a great idea!! I love putting together salads like this! Makes it so easy!
I love salads in jars, but your thai chopped is by far the BEST I have ever seen! I am heading out the door right now to get what I need!!
Wow this salad sounds so good! Actually, all of them do!
Does this recipe fill 1 or 2 jars?
what size mason jar’s did you use?
I love the convenience salad in jars! I have yet to use chicken in mine, do they still stay fresh for several days with the chicken?! Thanks for the new salads!
Love the suggestions. I’ve never made a mason jar salad but this is really tempting. I’m gonna give it a try. The Infographic at the end of the article is just awesome. Thanks Lexi!
Thanks so much Edgar! Enjoy!
How many servings in the thai chilli salad?
This is a very clever idea. I’ll have to try it. My Brother gave me a salad thing-a-muh-gig that had a similar idea. The dressing was in the top and you released it when you were ready to eat the salad. I thought it was clever too.
Mason Jar Salad??? ha 🙂 Good job. Beautiful pictures too.Gotta give it go just for fun. Thanks
Just stumbled upon this blog! OBSESSED! Menu planning with my 9 1/2 year old for the week and the Thai Chopped Chicken Salad is on the list. You reference Spicy Broccoli and Mango slaw, but there are no links to the recipes and when I have typed it in the search, it doesnt work. Help!!! 🙂 thank you!
Salads are basically the perfect meal – packed with colorful fruits, veggies, nuts and berries. Full of flavor, and awesome nutrition, the varieties and possibilities are endless.
