Chef’s Tips:

To bring out the sweetness of the almonds even more, toast them on the stovetop for 1 to 2 minutes on medium-low heat.
Have leftovers? Safe for later in the fridge. This salad keeps pretty well!
While whole almonds impart a nice crunch, you can choose to roughly chop your almonds into smaller pieces.
