The dressing is too oily for my liking. I would use less olive oil next time.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I would add some more herbs or spices to it next time.

Not a fan of fennel, but this salad was surprisingly good! The orange segments and dressing helped to balance out the anise flavor of the fennel.

Easy to make and packed with flavor. I used canned butter beans for convenience, and they worked perfectly. The orange segments added a nice citrusy touch. Overall, a great salad that I'll be making again.

This salad was a delightful surprise! The combination of fennel, butter beans, and orange segments was refreshing and flavorful. I added a bit of extra lemon juice and zest to brighten it up even more. Will definitely be making this again!
