Overall, I thought the salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The salad was missing some key ingredients. I think it would have been better with some feta cheese or walnuts.

The salad was too difficult to make. I don't think I'll be making it again.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try it again with a different dressing.
