- If you don't have raisins, you can substitute another dried fruit, such as cranberries or cherries.
- To make a vegan version of this salad, omit the mayonnaise and use a plant-based yogurt instead.
- This salad is best served chilled, so make it ahead of time and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
- Garnish the salad with fresh herbs, such as parsley, cilantro, or mint, just before serving for an extra pop of flavor.
