This salad is a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less feta cheese next time.

I added some grilled chicken to the salad for extra protein. It was a great addition!

I'm not a big fan of raw onions, so I omitted them from the salad. It was still delicious!

I love the colors in this salad. The bright red tomatoes, green basil, and yellow corn make it so visually appealing.

This salad is a great make-ahead meal. I often make it on the weekend and then eat it for lunch throughout the week.

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

This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. I always have some leftover veggies in my fridge, and this salad is a great way to use them up.

The farfalle salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.
