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.
