Serving: This salad is best served immediately to enjoy its freshness. It's a great standalone meal, but it can also be paired with grilled chicken, shrimp, or your favorite protein.
Storage: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a day. However, it’s best enjoyed fresh.
Variations:
Add a Grain: Add some quinoa, couscous, or brown rice to make it a heartier meal.
Switch the Cheese: If you prefer a stronger cheese flavor, try using feta, goat cheese, or cheddar instead of mozzarella.
Dressing: Experiment with different dressings like balsamic vinaigrette or lemon tahini for added variety.
FAQ:
Q1: Can I use a different protein instead of eggs?
Yes! You can add grilled chicken, turkey, tofu, or even chickpeas to boost the protein content.
Q2: Can I make this salad ahead of time?
While it's best served fresh, you can prep the veggies and store them in the fridge. Just add the eggs and mozzarella just before serving to prevent them from becoming soggy.
Q3: Can I substitute the avocado?
If you don’t have avocado, try adding some hummus or Greek yogurt for a creamy texture.
