Talk about a simple recipe! You can whip this salad up in ten minutes flat and unlike other salads, this one gets better with time. It is one that you can prepare ahead and store in the fridge until you are ready to serve.
We love to add all sorts of nuts and seeds but you could literally add anything and it would taste delicious!
