This salad is really good, but it's a bit too time-consuming to make. I would recommend using a pre-cooked chicken and store-bought dressing to save time.

I found this salad to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more herbs or spices to give it more flavor.

This salad is a bit too mayonnaise-y for my taste. I would recommend using less mayonnaise or adding some other ingredients to balance out the flavor.
