When a supported swap is chosen, Nutrition per serving below shows the adjusted values; filters, sugar screening, exports, Shopping and My Week stay based on the written recipe.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

Applies to: Prepared salad with a creamy or protein base, after mixing. Times assume safe preparation, prompt cooling when needed, a refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C or below, and a freezer at 0°F / -18°C or below.

Refrigerator: After mixing: refrigerate and use within 3–4 days.

Freezer: Does not freeze well. Egg, chicken, tuna and creamy salads generally do not freeze well — the dressing separates. This is a quality limit, not a safety one.

To reheat or serve: Serve cold, straight from the refrigerator.

Meal prep tip: Keep chilled until serving and refrigerate within 2 hours of making.
