Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.

Given:

I buy a week worth of salad components and make 10 salads for my partner and myself. No meat on these. Crumble of feta. Homemade oil/vinegar based dressing

Then I buy salmon or cod for a few meals, chicken for a few meals, then an optional "wildcard" that might require planning.

The rest is easy. Lots of fruits and veggies.

Don't be afraid to just do it. I learned mostly by trial and error and have ADHD as well.

How do you do salads for a week w/o spoilage?

Do you do any mise en place?

I did used to have some spoilage/lack of freshness but overcame it by trial and error.

I like greens that come from those robot farms. There have been a few different brands over the years. I have 10 square pyrex containers with lids that clip on all 4 sides. They've lasted about 5+ years so far. I put a small piece of paper towel in each to absorb extra moisture. Add cheese in the morning. Haven't had any spoil really but they sometimes taste less fresh and I eat them anyway.

I do my dressing in an oxo shaker but it can just be whisked in a bowl. Divvie it into Sistema dressing containers for the week. They're cheap and they've lasted years as well.

I've tweaked this a lot over the years but I've basically eaten a salad 5 days a week for 5+ years at this point. Be prepared to be the butt of jokes at work for sticking to it.
