Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The salad was a bit too acidic for my taste. I would use less vinegar or lemon juice next time.

The salad was a bit too crunchy for my taste. I would blanch the vegetables for a few minutes before marinating them next time.

The salad was too bland for my taste. I would add some more herbs or spices next time.

The marinade didn't really penetrate the vegetables. I think I would slice the vegetables thinner next time.

This salad is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the marinade next time.

I didn't have any sesame seeds, so I used chopped peanuts instead. It was still delicious.

I'm not a big fan of vinegar, so I used lemon juice instead. It turned out great!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover broccoli and carrots. I always have some leftover from other meals, and this is a great way to use them up.

I added some grilled chicken to this salad, and it was delicious! It made a great light and healthy meal.

I'm not a huge fan of raw broccoli, but this salad changed my mind. The marinade really tenderizes the broccoli and makes it much more palatable.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I like to make it the night before and let it marinate overnight. The flavors really develop that way.

I've made this salad a few times now, and it's always a hit. It's so easy to make, and it's a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables.

This marinated broccoli and carrot salad is a delightful dish! The flavors of the marinade are perfectly balanced, and the vegetables are crisp and refreshing. I especially love the addition of the toasted sesame seeds, which add a nice nutty flavor.
