For a slightly sweeter salad, increase the sugar by 1/4 cup. Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers or celery for added crunch and flavor. If you don't have pimentos, you can substitute with roasted red peppers. This salad is best served cold, so keep it refrigerated until serving time.
