This salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could use more dressing or maybe some herbs. I also found the rice to be a bit dry.

I've made this recipe several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is tangy and sweet, and the fruit and rice are the perfect combination of textures. I like to add a bit of chopped mint or basil for extra freshness.
