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

The quinoa was a little undercooked for my taste. I would cook it for a few minutes longer next time.

This salad is a little too bland for my taste. I would add some more spices or herbs to give it more flavor.

I'm not a fan of the lemon-tahini dressing. I think it's a little too sour for my taste.
