I'm not a big fan of seafood, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I was pleasantly surprised! The shrimp was cooked perfectly and the dressing was delicious. I'll definitely be making this again.

This salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my liking. I think I would have preferred it if the dressing had been a little more tangy.
