I'm allergic to pistachios, can I leave them out?
Pistachios add a good flavour to this salad, but not only that, they add a lovely crunch! It is fine to swap them for another nut if you need to. I recommend almonds, walnuts, or cashews. If you can't eat any nuts at all, you can either increase the pepitas, or you can replace with sunflower seeds. Toast your choice of replacement as you would the pistachios.
