This salad is a bit bland. I would recommend adding some herbs or spices to the vinaigrette.

The bacon vinaigrette was too salty for my taste. I would recommend using less bacon or using a low-sodium bacon.

The potatoes were a bit undercooked for my liking. I would recommend boiling them for a few minutes longer.

This salad is a bit too oily for my taste. I would recommend using less olive oil in the vinaigrette.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I usually make it the night before and let it chill in the fridge overnight. The flavors meld together beautifully.

This was a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. I used red potatoes instead of Yukon Gold and they worked great.
