I love the use of fresh herbs in this salad. It really brightens up the flavors. I also added some chopped nuts to give it some extra crunch.

This salad was easy to make and very delicious. I used a store-bought roasted chicken to save time, and it turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.

I found this salad to be very bland. The ravioli was overcooked and the dressing was not very flavorful. I would not recommend this recipe.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using a different dressing or adding some tart ingredients to balance out the sweetness.
