Definitely a crowd pleaser Easter Salad

A fresh and light salad serve on a beautiful Easter Sunday brunch. Who can not be more pleased!
We found this Easter buffet setting such a crowd pleaser! Yes #ohjoyandco took time off making these. And Easter is about egg hunting so we made this Easter Egg Salad.

Serving a refreshing and healthy salad is absolutely perfect! Here is how we did it...

Fill the jar with the ingredients starting with dressing which is basically 2 tbsps of mayonnaise. Continue to fill the jar with julienne carrot, red onions and sliced cucumber. Add in the cooked pasta, sliced red tomatoes. Place the hard boiled egg that is cut to half  facing the side of the jar to give it a nice presentation. To help hold the boiled egg in place add in the grated cheese. Fill the salad with fresh bite size lettuce (taring the lettuce up is the best to prevent the lettuce from browning on the edges).

Cover the mason jar - seal tight. To decorate the mason jar we cut out some rabbit ears using felt fabric. Click the link here to download the rabbit ears template.

To serve open each mason jar and pour contents on to a bowl. The next step is just dig in! Make sure to take a big bite when you find that egg!
