For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the dressing. Toasting the pecans brings out their nutty aroma and enhances their crunch. Feel free to customize the salad with your favorite herbs, such as fresh parsley or chives. For a lighter option, use avocado oil mayonnaise. Add grapes for more sweetness.
