Notes
- How to prep ahead of time: You can prepare this entire salad a couple of hours before serving.
- How to store: Keep this salad in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 2 to 3 days. However, it will get more watery as it sits.
- How to freeze: Do not freeze this salad as the texture will drastically change.
