I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salad turned out really dry. I think I may have overcooked the pork.

This salad is way too heavy on the dressing. I would recommend using half the amount.

I found this recipe to be a bit bland. I added some extra spices to give it more flavor.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover pork. It's also very versatile - you can add or remove ingredients to suit your taste.

I'm not a big fan of pork, but this salad was surprisingly good. The dressing was especially tasty.

This salad is so easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. I love that I can use leftover pork or beans to make it.

I made this salad for dinner last night and it was delicious! The pork was tender and flavorful, and the beans added a nice creamy texture. I would definitely make this again.

This salad was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone loved the combination of flavors and textures. The dressing was also a perfect complement to the pork and beans.
