Additional recipe notes

Tips: This salad is best served chilled or at room temperature. I keep the watermelon in the fridge before making it, which helps the salad stay chilled. Sweet watermelon salad will last for about two days in the refrigerator, stored in an airtight container. Make sure to toss the salad after it’s been stored to mix in any dressing that may have settled. Nutritional values provided are an estimate and will vary depending on the brands used.

Storage & reheating safety

For cooked, perishable leftovers, refrigerate within 2 hours (1 hour above 90°F), using shallow containers for prompt cooling. Keep the refrigerator at 40°F or below, use refrigerated leftovers within 3–4 days, and reheat hot leftovers to 165°F, checked with a food thermometer. Follow any shorter package limit.

These are general safety limits, not a tested storage or freezing recommendation for this particular dish. USDA leftovers guidance · Safe cooking temperatures
