This probably won't help with your situation, but in the past sometimes when time was an issue, I made my salads ahead of time.
Used smaller Tupperware containers. Chopped up a whole head of lettuce and then whatever else I wanted to add with it.
I was also dropping off a couple to my elderly mother. She's been a great cook all her life - but is 98 now and not as adept as she used to be - so I know this helped.
The salads retained their freshness in the fridge just fine for up to a week.

You mentioned in your next post Creamy Italian dressing. Oh my.....I love Creamy Italian!

I also like shredded carrots and shredded cheddar cheese sometimes, as extra ingredients.

One thing about those "pre-assembled" salads I mentioned....you can change up the ingredients on them as they move through your assembly line. Some get black olives....some get Spanish olives....some get cheese.......some don't......keeps it interesting.....
