This is good. I found the flavors meld and the taste and texture was better a couple days after making this salad. I used vidalia onion, fresh chopped dill weed, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, freshly squeezed lemon juice, a good extra virgin olive oil, no optional parsley, plus the rest of the ingredients.
