Tips & Tricks:

• Salad ingredients are customized. You can use the recipes' ingredients or add more like radish, carrots, lettuce, apple, olives.
• For a dairy-free salad skip Mozzarella cheese.
• Crumbled feta cheese can be used.
• For a whole meal add tuna fish or salmon fillet or chicken steak in a salad. I think hard-boiled eggs topped with freshly cracked black pepper tastes better.
• For a simple salad dressing only use vinegar & some honey.

Storage Tips:

Dressing:

          Store it in a jar for upto 3 months.

Salad: 

Leftover cucumber tomato mozzarella salad can be stored in the fridge for 12 hours to 1 day. To make ahead of time, you can prep the ingredients and assemble them in a bowl covered with a kitchen towel up to 24 hours in advance. Put the dressing just before serving, otherwise, it will become quite soggy.
