This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less mango or adding some other ingredients to balance out the flavor.

Not a fan. The quinoa was a bit too crunchy and the mango was too sour. I wouldn't make this again.

The salad was good, although the flavors were a bit bland. I think it would have been better with a bit more spice or acidity. Overall, it was a decent recipe, but it could use some improvement.

The mango quinoa salad was quite delightful. The combination of sweet mango and nutty quinoa was a unique and tasty experience. As a suggestion, I would recommend adding a bit more lime juice to enhance the flavors even further.
