Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Keep your black beans in a well-sealed container to maintain their freshness and prevent any unwanted odors from seeping into the salad.
- 2. Store your cooked shrimp in a separate container from the other ingredients to avoid any cross-contamination and extend their shelf life.
