Notes

Storage:

Salads are best served as soon as you prep 'em. Romaine lettuce starts to wilt under creamy dressing, and the chips will get a little soft, too.

However, if you have leftovers you can store it in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy it the next day.

If you want to make your salad last for a day or two longer, leave the barbecue ranch dressing on the side. Add it to each serving of salad instead of the whole thing.

Store leftover dressing in the refrigerator for up to a week.
