06

Step
30 mins

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. (30 minutes)

07

Step

Serve chilled on a bed of lettuce, in a sandwich, or with crackers.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding 1/4 cup of chopped red onion or a handful of raisins or grapes for a touch of sweetness.
If you prefer a creamier salad, add an extra tablespoon or two of Greek yogurt.
Toasting the almonds before adding them to the salad enhances their nutty flavor and adds a pleasant crunch.
This salad is best served cold. It can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
