Easy salad that can be transported and put together quickly?

Bagged salad mix (spring mix or whatever - personally I don’t love all the greens to be spinach - the texture turns me off)

Easy vegetable, you chose: shredded carrot, cucumber, grape tomatoes (I like to cut in half), radish, diced cauliflower or broccoli, onion - whatever you have in the produce drawer!

1-2 cheeses - crumbled feta is a nice dump and use one.

Protein if you want it - crumbled bacon, leftover chicken or drained good quality canned chicken

A handful of bagged salad topping - usually has nuts, dried fruits, pumpkin seeds, etc. - Costco has a really good one with glazed pecans.

THEN, A REALLY GOOD BOTTLED DRESSING!!! Quality salad dressing makes all the difference!
I always highly recommend Garlic Expressions if you’re area carries it!

At anytime I can build a salad like this with different combo of ingredients because there is always some veggies/cheese/protein in the house I can use to dump on the packaged greens!

Editing to say: Homemade salad dressing of course is delicious too but it seemed the point was speed and convenience.
