This salad was not good. The butternut squash was dry and the lentils were hard. The goat cheese was the only thing that was edible. I will not be making this again.

This salad was just okay. The butternut squash was a bit too sweet for my taste and the lentils were a bit too mushy. The goat cheese was good, but it couldn't save the salad. I will not be making this again.

This salad was a disappointment. The butternut squash was undercooked and the lentils were bland. The goat cheese was the only thing that saved it. I will not be making this again.
