For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of toasted sesame seeds or a sprinkle of crumbled feta cheese. Feel free to substitute other fresh herbs, such as mint or parsley, for the dill. If you don't have fresh lime juice, bottled lime juice can be used, but fresh is always best. The salad can be made a few hours ahead of time, but wait to add the lime juice until just before serving to prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.
