In reply to Jennifer. Hi, Jennifer! Since there's no meat or dairy, and it's only for an hour or so to take the chill off, it should be fine!

Hi,

I tried this recipe, but found the salad too cold. Is it okay to leave it out for like an hour before eating so it can get to room temperature? I’m worried about bacteria. Thanks in advance!!!☺️

In reply to Fabrice. I haven't had any issues with this. I think part of the reason is that the dressing coats the beans and is absorbed into the rice relatively quickly, so really it's the wet rice and beans that acts as the "dressing" to the salad.

I don’t see how you manage to keep the salad dressing emulsified for several days? Doesn’t the oil and the water based ingredients separate after a few hours at the bottom of the jar?
