In my family, we’ve always called this Italian Flag Salad, and used white onion instead of red, so the salad is the colors of the Italian flag. I also use apple cider vinegar instead of lemon juice.
We just made this to go with our gnocchi with pesto. Delicious and refreshing! Will definitely be making it again.
