I was thinking to do this for wife to take it to work but.She is going to be eating the same salad every day and dressing? - 09 May 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This is very tasty, but being 6 servings (although a good meal prep), I think at minimum it should serve 2 peeps for 3 days, 6 days a week for one would be so very boring and it's not the most nutritious recipe out there. Would be great for a group lunch though! - 09 May 2018 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
Okay I haven't made this yet, but plan to. However, the noodles will get really soggy if they sit in this so I would suggest putting them in a small snack zip lock bag and lay on top. you would definitely need a hardy lettuce or by the 6th day the lettuce is going to be wilted and slimy. I would put the dressing in a small container and add when I'm ready to eat--this may have been in the directions, but I can't see them and type this.
