FAQ

  • How long can it be stored?

    You can prepare this salad in advance and store it in the refrigerator in an airtight container for a couple of days. The avocado will naturally tend to oxidize and lose its bright green color.

  • Can I use another protein?

    Of course, you can choose the protein you prefer, like turkey, salmon, or – if you’re vegan or vegetarian – soy.

  • Can I use another type of lettuce?

    Yes, you can choose the variety you prefer!
