This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before and it was just as good the next day.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have liked it better with a more savory dressing.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my salad turned out really bland. The dressing was watery and the herbs were tasteless.

This salad was a refreshing and flavorful side dish to my grilled chicken. The ginger vinaigrette was a perfect complement to the mixed greens and herbs.
