Can I make this salad the night before?
It’s best assembled fresh. However, you can boil eggs and chop veggies in advance. Store them separately and combine in the morning.

What can I use instead of lemon juice?
A little apple cider vinegar or lime juice would work well for a similar tangy flavour.
