I’ve made this a few times and it’s so easy to make. It’s perfect side dish for a BBQ or works well with grilled meat or fish. Really tasty salad which can be made ahead and served when everything else is ready. You can keep leftovers in the fridge for lunch the next day although there’s rarely leftovers in our house 🙂
