We at Vital Proteins® are all about streamlining routines – and the same can be said for meal prepping. If you’re short on time, I recommend adding this On-The-Go Caesar Salad to your recipe rotation. Not only is it literally filled to the brim with nutrient-rich ingredients like kale and roasted chickpeas, but also boasts a wellness must-have, Vital Proteins® Marine Collagen ($35; shop now).
The kale holds up well with the creamy dressing and the balance of the creaminess balances the heat of the roasted chickpeas. It is a perfectly flavorful meal in a travel-friendly jar you can bring with you anywhere.
As for this collagen recipe's star ingredient – Marine Collagen – every scoop of this pescatarian-friendly supplement helps to support healthy hair, skin, nails and joints.** Sourced from the scales of wild-caught, non-GMO white fish, our fish collagen easily dissolves in hot or cold liquids, making it a super versatile addition to any recipe.
