For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a handful of toasted pecans or walnuts. If you prefer a lighter salad, substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise. This salad is best served within 24 hours of preparation to maintain its optimal texture and freshness. Adjust the amount of Dijon mustard to your personal preference for tanginess.
