super healthy + simple vegan + gluten free summer salad

Here’s a super easy vegan and gluten free meal prep idea! Love prepping a salad to have at hand throughout the week for packed lunches – also love this for summer picnics or days at the beach (but it can be enjoyed at any time of year!)

All ingredients can be adjusted and substituted depending on personal preference (or what’s in your fridge…) 🙂
