fresh and tangy
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

I added some grilled chicken breast to it and it was good. I also didn't have all the herbs called for so only used basil... and added asparagus instead of peppers. I think it would work with lots of variety of veggies. Its really the dressing that makes this salad.Read more

Loved this!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Wonderful refreshing flavor. Great for warm weather dining. Served this as a side dish to Tangerine-Maple Glazed Chicken... Thighs and Drumsticks at an outdoor dinner party and it was gobbled up fast! Leftovers taste great too, as all the flavors soak in and blend together.Read more

We enjoyed it a lot!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

This was a nice salad, I added some grilled chicken to it as my s/o needs a bit of protein for his meals. I just cut it up... and laid it on top. The entire salad was really good, and the chicken was light enough to not bog down the salad. We will make this again.Read more

Not bad
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

It is a refreshing salad, just not 'my thing' - I omitted the mint out of preference. The dressing was very good; maybe next... time for my personal preference I would make this with the noodles, red pepper and basil, omitting the cilantro and maybe adding some different veggies.Read more

Did not like it
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I used 4oz of whole wheat spaghetti as suggested. The 1/4 cup of rice vinegar and 1/3 cup of mint was too powerful. I did... not like it.Read more
