Recipe Notes:
- For added crunch, consider adding some chopped nuts or seeds such as almonds, sunflower seeds, or pumpkin seeds.
- This salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Just give it a quick stir before serving.
- Feel free to customize the salad with your favorite vegetables or add-ins, such as cherry tomatoes, grated carrots, or diced avocado.
- To make the salad vegan or dairy-free, swap the mayonnaise for a vegan alternative or a tangy vinaigrette dressing.
- For a tangier flavor, try adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a splash of apple cider vinegar to the dressing. Adjust the seasoning accordingly.
