I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the picture. Maybe I did something wrong.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would add some more herbs or spices to give it more flavor.

I'm not a big fan of goat cheese, so I used feta cheese instead. It was still delicious!
