I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much lemon juice.

This salad was really easy to make, but it didn't have much flavor. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I found this recipe to be too salty. I think I'll try it again with half the amount of salt next time.

I thought this salad was just okay. The flavors were a bit bland for my taste.

This was a great recipe! The only thing I changed was that I used fresh dill instead of dried.
