For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese or a handful of fresh basil leaves just before serving. To enhance the flavor of the pine nuts, consider toasting them with a pinch of sea salt. The salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. However, it is best served within a few hours of chilling for optimal freshness.
