This salad was a bit bland. I added some extra fish sauce and lime juice to taste.

The noodles in this salad were a bit overcooked. I'll be sure to cook them for less time next time.

This salad is a bit too spicy for my taste. Next time, I'll use less chili sauce.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I substituted basil in this recipe. It was still delicious.

I love the spicy peanut dressing on this salad. It's the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and spicy.

This cold Thai pasta salad was fantastic! The flavors were bright and refreshing, and the textures were perfect. I loved the crunch of the vegetables and the chewiness of the noodles.
