Can I make this salad ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare the salad up to a day in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator and toss again before serving.

If you don't have a spiralizer, you can use store-bought zucchini noodles or substitute with shirataki noodles for a similar low-carb effect.
