Notes

  • This salad can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a crunchier texture, toast the pecans before adding.

  • Use Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter version.
  • Fresh dill enhances the flavor, but dried dill can be used as a substitute at half the quantity.
