Notes
Frequently asked questions:
- Can I make this salad ahead? You can make it one day ahead or to take to a picnic but do not add the dressing until ready to serve. So if you are taking this salad along, pack the parsley mixture, cheese and dressing in separate containers.
- How long will it keep? I only like to serve this fresh. I have eaten some following day if I have a little left over but it is much better eaten as fresh as possible.
- Can I freeze parsley salad? No, do not freeze this dish it will completely wilt the greens and tomato.
