Tips
For the cucumbers, slice them thinly so they can soak up the flavors.
Finely chop the broccoli to avoid big bits in each bite.
If you don't have chives, you can substitute with 2 green onions or scallions.
This salad pairs well with grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, or roasted chickpeas for added protein.
You can top it with feta, more walnuts, fresh herbs, and a dusting of sumac.
