For an extra burst of flavor, consider adding a squeeze of fresh lemon juice or a tablespoon of Dijon mustard to the dressing. Chopped celery or bell peppers can also be added for added texture and crunch. If you prefer a lighter salad, substitute Greek yogurt for half of the mayonnaise. Fresh dill can be used instead of dried dill, use twice the amount of fresh dill than dry dill.
