This salad was okay, but I've had better. I think I would prefer a different dressing.

The dressing was a bit too thick for my liking. I would recommend thinning it out with a little bit of water or vinegar.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less dried cranberries or omitting them altogether.

I made this salad for my family and they all loved it. The goat cheese and dried cherries were a perfect addition.

I'm not usually a fan of spinach salads, but this one was delicious. The dressing was perfectly balanced and the cranberries and walnuts added a nice crunch.
