{good eats} in a jar



This has to be my favorite post for {Picnic Week} and yes it's about food!!!  
Of course I love desserts in a jar but I'm also loving  bbq, chili or salad in a jar too! Isn't this such a great idea for picnics? 

Would your jar be filled with something sweet or savory?

  19. I adore the idea of sweets and eats in jars! I like the individuality of it ~ if that makes any sense? It's so simple to grab a jar and a spoon/fork and dig in...no need to serve it up, get a plate or bowl dirty ~ so less waste and easy clean-up! Since I am not a huge sweets person mine would be filled with salad, bbq or chili...YUMMY in my tummy!!
