Notes
- Storage & Make Ahead
- Store: This salad is best enjoyed fresh, as you will end up with soggy Fritos if you store it all mixed in. The salad and dressing without the Fritos corn chips will last for up to 2 days in the refrigerator in an airtight container.
- Make Ahead: Prepare the salad and the dressing separately and combine them with the Fritos just before serving, or even combine the dressing and salad beforehand but add the Fritos before serving.
