Notes

Store leftover salad in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2–3 days. For less watery results, scoop cucumber seeds out before dicing. If you prefer a tangier dressing, add 1–2 teaspoons lemon juice or white wine vinegar. Consider storing dressing separately if keeping leftovers longer.
