Food in a Jar Recipes
We have oodles of ideas for using jars for canning, safety while you are canning, salsa recipes for canning and of course Jams & Jellies.
But the jars can be used for more than just canning. Here are a few ideas we found to make use of the jars when they aren’t full of your canned goods.
A quick solution is a salad in a jar.
More salad options – some savory and some sweet:
What about converting that jar so it’s more usable for a small adult lunch box?
All this talk about lunch options begs the question: What about breakfast? Have you tried this overnight oatmeal in a jar recipe?
Hope you enjoyed these creative and helpful ways to get some use out of the jars between canning seasons. Do you have a favorite recipe in a jar? Share it with us!

You can find mason jars pretty easily online. Search for pint jars. You can also find them with canning supplies at most grocery stores.
