Tips for making this recipe

  • Cut vegetables in different shapes: We eat with our eyes first! Cutting the fruit and vegetables in different sizes and shapes adds texture and makes the salad look even better.
  • Store the dressing on a different container when meal prepping: Make sure you add the dressing when it’s time to eat so that your salad doesn’t get soggy.
  • Prevent the avocado from turning brown: If you’re making this salad ahead, brush the avocado with lemon juice to prevent it from turning brown.
