Easy Lunch Salad

So every week-end I make fresh salad mix and it takes about 20 minutes to do the salad and the toppings.  I get out my chopping board and go to town.  I cut up romain lettuce and throw it in a big bowl.  I then get my bag of shredded carrots or broccoli slaw, chop in into smaller bits and toss it with the lettuce.  I then put this in big bag or some plastic containers and throw it in the fridge.  Then I get out my toppings and chop them into bits to put on top of the salad.  This can be zucchini, yellow squash, peppers, jicama or whatever and I mix them together and put them in the fridge as well.  

When I want a salad during the week I just put one together adding anything else I can think of like green peas, roasted almonds or rice crackers for crunch.  You really can cook/make that with just a little pre-planning.
