For the best flavor, cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and intensify. (2+ hours)
For a richer flavor, use toasted slivered almonds instead of chopped almonds.
If you don't have balsamic vinegar, you can substitute with red wine vinegar or lemon juice.
Feel free to add other ingredients like cooked bacon bits, chopped celery, or shredded carrots for added texture and flavor.
This salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
