Fruity Chicken Salad with Minted Orange Dressing - Merry Christmas

How long do you think this dressing will last in the fridge?   I have some that has been there over a week - still smells fine - and was wondering if it would be OK to use tomorrow?

Personally I think the dressing goes a little bitter after a day…so like to use it all up first go…but it should keep well. It wont go off. But just the flavour of the mint becomes a little acidic and bitter…(a lot like me with age!)

I know I am a pest Tenina but maybe another note that could be included with recipes - how long to keep dressings.

Thanks Tenina - mayabe my taste buds arent that sophisticated, because I have been using it on my lunch for work every day this week - just throwing together some salad stuff with some left over roasted chicken meat, and the left over dressing.  Still absolutely delicious!  I cant taste any bitterness at all

Just bringing this one to attention again; we had it for Christmas lunch with other meats. I used cooked chicken as others have done and loved the dressing which we used up over the rest of the week; not bitter to us. Great summer salad especially if entertaining.
