This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less oranges or maybe even no oranges at all.

This salad was easy to make and very refreshing. I liked the combination of the oranges and the fennel, but I thought the red onion was a bit too strong. Next time I make this, I'll use less red onion.
