- Feel free to mix in additional vegetables like cherry tomatoes or red onion for added color and taste.
- If you prefer a bit of crunch, sprinkle some toasted nuts or seeds over the salad before serving.
- Store any leftover dressing in an airtight container in the fridge. It can be used for up to a week on other salads or as a marinade.
