- Pickle Relish - If you don't want a sweet pickle relish dill relish will work as well.
- Seasoning - You can change up the spices you use for this recipe. A creole seasoning would be delicious as well.
- Additional veggies - Adding additional diced veggies like celery or bell peppers will add more texture and crunch to the salad.
- Serve chilled - This salad tastes best cold, so be sure to allow ample time for it to chill before serving.
