I'm not sure about this salad. I'm not a big fan of oranges in salads.

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

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The dressing was really good though.

This salad is so easy to make and it's always delicious. I love that I can use whatever fruit I have on hand. It's also a great way to get my kids to eat their veggies.

I've been making this salad for years and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is so light and tangy, and the almonds add a nice crunch. I highly recommend it!
