Our Weekly Salad Bag

This isn't really a recipe, just an idea that we have been using for a long, long time.
We try to eat salad with nearly every dinner, but it was such a pain to make the salad every night that we often would just skip it. Mike had the idea to make a huge one, put it in a ziploc bag and keep it on hand. At the beginning of each week we (well, usually Mike) chop up our veggies, throw them together, and we're all set.
This bag is Mike's favorite mix:
iceberg lettuce,
shredded carrots (I buy a pre-shredded bag),
cilantro
and green onions.
( I sneak in other lettuces when I can :-)
