Salad On A Stick

salad on a stick

The Holidays are filled with friends, family, food and parties. All of these, of course, go hand in hand. With all of the entertaining, it can be easy to over-complicate things during the Holidays. Kevin and I love having friends over for game nights and we tend to all share a meal together. We have found that simple is better, so today, I wanted to share with you my Salad On A Stick Tutorial – An easy way to serve salad as an appetizer. This goes perfect with STOUFFER’S® Family Size Entrées Lasagna and NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Holiday Chocolate Chip Refrigerated Cookie Dough.

You can grab everything you need really quick at Walmart. STOUFFER’S® and NESTLÉ® provide easy solutions to feed your family and friends during the busy holiday season! I like to make sure I always have stock of these essentials in my refrigerator. Although, for this particular game night, I picked up:

 

STOUFFER’S® Family Size Entrées Lasagna

NESTLÉ® TOLL HOUSE® Holiday Chocolate Chip Refrigerated Cookie Dough

Salad

Croutons

Mozzarella Cheese Slices

Toothpicks

Caesar Dressing

I love the salad on a stick concept, because normally, dinner isn’t quite ready when everyone arrives. Salad On A Stick serves as a great appetizer while everyone is waiting and is just a super fun way to eat a salad. Plus, it is super simple to make and by adding a cute Christmas plate, you have spiced up the meal.

How To: Salad On A Stick

Step 1: Gather your supplies at Walmart.

Step 2: Stick the toothpick through the crouton.

Step 3: Add a piece of lettuce to the toothpick.

Step 4: Add a piece of cheese to the toothpick.

Step 5: Repeat steps 3-4 until the toothpick is full.

Step 6: Pour Caesar dressing (or dressings of choice) into a small bowl

Step 7: Enjoy!

I hope you enjoy this new way to eat salad! Be sure to check out the NESTLÉ® Flavorful Moments Pinterest Page for more ways to enjoy STOUFFER’S® and what recipes to pair with it. I’d love to hear about your quick and easy ideas to go with STOUFFER’S®. Comment Below!

If you’re looking for a way to truly spoil mom this year, this is your sign 💐 We spent the day at @TBahama and it was everything—from the prettiest gift finds to the most delicious lunch all in one place.

We found the cutest pieces (this bag + hat combo… obsessed 💗), cozy staples you’ll wear on repeat, plus jewelry, accessories, and even Maui Jim sunnies 👏🏻

Then we topped it off with lunch and let me just say… their Mother’s Day weekend menu is going to be unreal! Oat Banana Pancakes, Lobster & Crab Crepes, AND a “Call Your Mother” cocktail—yes please 🥂

Honestly, you could do the entire day right here and make mom feel so special (and grab a gift card while you’re at it 😉)
