Serving tip: Keep the tomato mix separate if packing ahead and toast the bread just before serving. For packed lunches, divide cooked components into shallow containers and refrigerate within 1–2 hours at 0–5°C. Pack salad and dressing separately where practical. Use within 48 hours, or the earliest ingredient use-by limit. Transport in an insulated bag with an ice pack and keep chilled until eating. For larger households, cook no more than 4 base servings in each set of the listed pans; use additional pans or repeat the complete batch. Extra sequential batches add the stated cooking time.
