can i make these salads tonight do you think ready for tomorrow??

[mckenzie]

We are having a bbq party tomorrow early evening and ideally I need to get as organised as possible tonight as tomorrow afternoon DS has his birthday party and I shall be helping to entertain and feed children rather than be preparing food at home. I'm planning making a caesar salad (courtesy of Delia) and Jamie's chick pea summer salad and his carrot and coriander crunch.
Do you think it will be okay to make any or all of those tonight please without them going soggy/limp/rank?

TIA

If it is completely fresh ingredients (bought today or yesterday) they should be fine made up today and refrigerated until tomorrow

yes, ingredients were all bought fresh today. thanks hmc.

I wouldn't put any dressing on until the last minute - but yes, making up the rest should be fine.

don't cut the saland for the caesar salad tonight as it will go soggy overnight... you can cut the salad in the am and place a few icecubes....

the others are fine to make in advance!!

thanks moo and DD.
