Advice

Salt right before serving and seed the tomatoes β€” it keeps the salad crunchy, not watery.

Why it works: Delaying salt reduces water draw from veggies; seeding tomatoes lowers excess juice, while roasted cumin + lemon make a bright, savory dressing without oil.

Twist: Add pomegranate seeds for sweetness, or fold in diced avocado + toasted peanuts for extra richness and bite.
