This salad was very good. I used a mix of greens, including spinach, arugula, and romaine lettuce. The cranberry vinaigrette was delicious and I will definitely be using it again on other salads.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the vinaigrette.

This salad was delicious! The cranberry vinaigrette was the perfect complement to the greens, and the goat cheese added a nice touch of creaminess. I will definitely be making this again.
