One clever tip for this salad is to let it sit in the refrigerator for about an hour before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and intensify, creating an even more delicious eating experience. Feel free to customize this recipe by adding in other fresh herbs or a splash of citrus juice for an extra zing!
