I'm not a big fan of basil, so I substituted it with cilantro. The salad was still delicious!

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

The salad was a bit too heavy on the dressing for my taste. I would recommend using less dressing or diluting it with some water.

I found that the salad was a bit bland. I would recommend adding some more salt and pepper to taste.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less honey or agave nectar in the dressing.

I'm not a huge fan of cranberries, so I omitted them from the recipe. The salad was still delicious without them.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover edamame. I usually have some leftover edamame from making edamame hummus, and this salad is a great way to use it up.

I love that this salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste. I sometimes add grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a more substantial meal.
