This salad was a bit too expensive to make. I think I'll look for a more affordable recipe next time.

I'm not sure I like the combination of fruit and pasta. I think I'll stick to more traditional pasta salads in the future.

The dressing was a bit too thick for me. I think I'll thin it out with some milk next time.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar in the dressing next time.
