Tasty Picnic Salads to Help You Save Time & Stay Healthy this 4th of July!

Happy 4th of July! This holiday commemorates the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, which proclaimed that the 13 American colonies regarded themselves as a new nation, the United States of America!

Independence Day — July 4th — is marked in the U.S. by patriotic displays, and is commonly associated with fireworks, parades, fairs, and our favorites — barbecues and picnics! To help you celebrate this holiday (and National Picnic Month), we’ve developed a few great salad recipes using Taylor Farms salad kits that 1.) will be a perfect pairing with your backyard barbeque or picnic in the park and 2.) take only minutes to put together, so you can save time to make time enjoying your company.

Everything required is included; there’s no prepping, washing, or chopping — just add a protein or additional grain of your choice and you have a wholesome, healthy, homemade meal in minutes that your friends and family will love.
