Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

This salad was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I would have preferred less salt in the dressing.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I think it could use some more herbs or spices.

This salad is a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think it would be great with a different dressing.

I love this salad! It's so easy to make and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I usually add some grilled chicken or shrimp to make it a more complete meal.
