I followed the recipe exactly and my salad turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more salt.

I thought this salad was just okay. The dressing was a little bland and the peppers were a bit too crunchy.

I'm not a huge fan of bell peppers, but this salad changed my mind. The peppers were roasted to perfection and had a slightly sweet flavor.

Great recipe! The salad was a little spicy for my taste, but I just cut back on the amount of cayenne pepper I used.

I love that this recipe uses three different types of peppers. It gives the salad a really nice depth of flavor.

I've made this salad twice now, and both times it's been a crowd-pleaser. The dressing is tangy and flavorful, and the peppers add a nice crunch.
