Overall, I thought this salad was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either. I probably wouldn't make it again.

The lentils in this salad were a bit too crunchy for my liking. I think I would have preferred them to be cooked a little longer.

This salad was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less apples or maybe a different type of fruit, like grapes or berries.
