For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a splash of red wine vinegar or a squeeze of lemon juice to the dressing. Feel free to customize the salad with your favorite additions, such as sun-dried tomatoes, roasted red peppers, or fresh basil. This salad is best served chilled, allowing the flavors to meld together. Prepare it a few hours ahead of time for optimal taste.
