This salad is so overrated. It's just a bunch of chopped up vegetables with a bland dressing.

I found this recipe to be really inaccurate. The cooking times were way off and the ingredients didn't make sense.

This recipe is way too complicated. I ended up giving up and ordering takeout.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my salpicón turned out really bland. I think I might have used the wrong type of dressing.

I made this salad for my friends who are vegan. I used tofu instead of beef and it was a big hit.

I'm not a huge fan of cilantro, so I used parsley instead. It was still really good.

I added some avocado to my salpicón and it was delicious! I also used a store-bought rotisserie chicken instead of beef.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover beef. It's also a great way to get your kids to eat their vegetables.
