This recipe was a bit too fishy for my taste. I think I'll try a different salmon recipe next time.

This dish was a complete disaster. The salmon was dry and the quinoa was mushy. I will not be making this recipe again.

This recipe was a bit too bland for me. I added some extra spices and it was much better.
