I followed the recipe exactly, but my salad didn't turn out as good as the picture. It was still tasty, but it wasn't as visually appealing.

This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more dressing next time.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover rice. I always have a little bit of rice left over after I make a stir-fry, and this is the perfect way to use it up.

I'm not a huge fan of sesame seeds, so I omitted them from this salad. It was still delicious!

This salad is a great way to use up leftover green beans. I always have a few extra beans after I make a green bean casserole, and this is the perfect way to use them up.
