⭐️Moroccan Tomato Salad Tips⭐️

⭐️While paprika can be eaten raw, feel free to substitute it with other vegetables like cucumber if you prefer.

⭐️If scallions are unavailable, you can substitute them with finely chopped spring onions or chives. Each option adds a slightly different flavor profile, but all work well in this salad.

⭐️This refreshing tomato salad pairs wonderfully with meat dishes. For an authentic touch, try serving it alongside Moroccan chicken sautéed with charmoula sauce.
