Best salad kit at Trader Joe's?

Lately, I've been wanting nothing but salad for lunch, and have been trying to find the best salad kits that Trader Joe's is offering. I usually add some protein, like a hard-boiled egg or chickpeas, and try to get 3 lunches out of one kit. Other than that, the less work I have to do to get my meal ready, the better! I don't eat meat, but there is not a vegetable on this earth I do not love.

The southwest salad is the BEST!! I like to substitute the cheese from the kit (I’m trying to cut back on dairy) for a small avocado.

The new Mediterranean salad is very good! It has a nice mix of toppings and chickpeas especially would pair well with it for protein.

I haven't tried that one! I will pick that and the Southwest Salad up on my next TJ's trip for sure!

Wish they would get rid of the celery in it.

True. That would improve it.

If you're willing to buy individual things and throw them together, I really like getting three different bags of greens so there's some variety (I really like arugula, baby kale, and either romaine for crunch or spinach), sliced baby bella mushrooms, a bell pepper sliced for sweetness, the green goddess salad dressing, mix it all up, then sprinkle some raw walnuts on top, that's my go to lunch

The salad with BBQ flavored chicken is the BEST!
