I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out really watery. I think I must have added too much dressing.

I'm not a big fan of mayonnaise, but the dressing in this salad is so light and flavorful that I didn't even notice it.

The chicken club salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more seasoning.

I used Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise in the dressing and it was just as good, maybe even better.

The dressing is a bit too tangy for my taste, but the rest of the salad is delicious.
