The dressing for this salad was too oily for my liking. I would have preferred a lighter dressing.

This salad was a little bland for my taste. I think it could have used more salt and pepper.

This orzo salad was a hit at my summer potluck! The combination of fresh vegetables, herbs, and feta cheese was delicious and refreshing. I especially loved the addition of the grilled corn, which gave the salad a smoky flavor.
