Notes
Meal Prep Magic
You can keep all of the prepped ingredients except for the avocado and dressing for two days covered in the refrigerator. To keep them any longer, I recommend storing the ingredients in divided containers or separately. Otherwise, the moisture from other ingredients will start to make your lettuce soggy. Add avocado and dressing just before serving.Nutrition
