The salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more seasonings next time.

The pesto was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll use less olive oil next time.

This salad was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less smoked ham next time.

I'm not a huge fan of pesto, but this salad changed my mind. The pesto was so flavorful and well-balanced, it didn't overpower the other ingredients. I also loved the addition of smoked ham and penne. This salad is definitely a keeper!
