For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the dressing. Toasting the Parmesan cheese lightly before adding it to the dressing will add some nutty flavor notes. If you don’t have smoked paprika, regular paprika will work in a pinch, but the smoky flavor really elevates the dish. Feel free to add other toppings like crispy bacon bits or toasted pine nuts for added texture and flavor.
