Notes
Storing leftovers? Pop them in an airtight container and keep them in the fridge for up to 3 days. For a milder onion flavor, soak the finely chopped red onion in cold water for 10 minutes before adding it to the salad. This salad also pairs fantastically with grilled chicken or fish if you’re looking to add protein!
