For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce to the dressing. If you're short on time, the salad can be served immediately, but the flavors will deepen and improve with refrigeration. Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar and vinegar to suit your personal taste preferences. Make sure to finely chop the bell pepper and red onion for a more pleasant texture.
