For a brighter flavor, add a tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley or dill. If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of sugar. Feel free to experiment with other vegetables, such as diced bell peppers or carrots. This salad pairs well with grilled meats, sandwiches, or as part of a potluck spread. For a tangy twist, substitute a tablespoon of the red wine vinegar with lemon juice.
