For an extra burst of flavor, try adding a handful of chopped fresh mint or a pinch of cumin.
Adjust the amount of lemon juice and salt to your liking.
This salad is a great make-ahead dish. It can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Add crumbled feta cheese for a tangy and salty twist.
If you don't have fresh parsley, you can substitute with 1/2 cup of dried parsley, but fresh is highly recommended.
