Notes
What to Add?: Feel free to add other ingredients like shredded carrots, diced bell peppers, or chopped herbs for extra color and flavor. No matter what you add, this goes great with almost any meat dish, since it can add crunch and nutrition.
Prep Ahead: If you’re not eating low histamine, this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. Just give it a good toss before serving again.
Enhancing Flavor: If you prefer a bit of sweetness, consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or a drizzle of honey to balance the flavors. Enjoy!
