Preparing Ahead in a Large Batch
If you are busy and don’t have time to chop veggies daily for a fresh salad, then this Mediterranean cucumber salad is for you. You can prepare the salad ahead of time, but there are several things to keep in mind to get the right nutrition.
- Separate the cucumber from dressing- Chopping the veggies can take time. You can cut this Greek Cucumber Salad into cubes beforehand. It is imperative to remember that the cucumber stays separate from the dressing or salt because it will start to let off the water. As a result, the cucumber cubes will be dry when you add them to your salad.
- Preparing the dressing – The dressing for this cucumber tomato Greek salad can be prepared ahead of time and stored in a jar. You will need to keep the jar in the fridge if you want to use it after a couple of days. In case the oil hardens, you can place the jar at room temperature or place it in warm water. It will liquefy the dressing and be ready to be poured into your salad.
Make-Ahead and Storing
Make-Ahead Instructions - Make the salad normal without the dressing in an airtight container for up to three days. Then, just before eating, pour the dressing into the bowl and toss the salad.
Refrigerator Instructions - Eat dressed salad within 24 hours. If the salad has not been dressed, you can store it in an airtight container for up to three days. Dress just before eating.
