This recipe is a fail. The dressing is too oily and the vegetables are undercooked.

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

I'm not a huge fan of mayonnaise, so I substituted Greek yogurt in the dressing. It turned out great!

I love the addition of sun-dried tomatoes and artichoke hearts. They add so much flavor and texture to the salad.
