Notes

How to Store

To store leftover Tomato Salad, it's important to keep it in the refrigerator to maintain freshness and food safety. Transfer any remaining salad to an airtight container or seal it well with plastic wrap. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent the salad from absorbing other odors in the fridge. Tomato Salad can typically be stored in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. However, keep in mind that the texture of the tomatoes may change slightly as they release moisture over time. Before serving any leftovers, gently stir the salad to redistribute the dressing and flavors.

Make-Ahead

You can prep the tomatoes and onions a day ahead of time and store them separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator. You can also prepare the dressing a day ahead of time and store it in a separate container in the refrigerator. Add the dressing to the salad just before serving. You can assemble the salad a few hours ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap or a lid to keep it fresh. If you plan to add toppings to the salad, such as avocado or fresh herbs, add them just before serving to prevent them from becoming discolored or mushy.
