For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the vinaigrette. Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as chopped cucumber, red bell pepper, or shredded carrots. If you don't have distilled vinegar, apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar can be used as substitutes. For a brighter flavor, add a tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to the dressing. This salad is even better the next day as the flavors continue to develop.
