This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with a more flavorful dressing.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover watercress. I always have a bunch of it in my fridge and I'm always looking for new ways to use it.

This salad was a bit too expensive for my taste. I think I could have made a similar salad at home for much cheaper.

I had a hard time finding watercress at my local grocery store. I ended up using arugula instead and it was still good.
