  • Use a flavorful dressing. The dressing is what really brings this salad to life, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Use a good quality olive oil and vinegar, and add some fresh herbs, spices, and citrus zest.
  • Garnish with nuts and seeds. Nuts and seeds add a nice crunch and flavor to the salad. You can use any type of nuts or seeds that you like, but walnuts, pecans, almonds, and sunflower seeds are all good options.
