Notes

These salads are best enjoyed fresh, but if you need to store leftovers, keep the ingredients separate. Store any remaining fruits and greens in airtight containers in the fridge. Try to eat them within a day or two to maintain their freshness. Use seasonal fruits for the best flavor and feel free to switch up the greens based on preference.
