This was very good. The mixture of colors and textures is great. I liked the flavor of the sauce, but I've realized I'm not a fan of cilantro. I added bell pepper, which I liked. I think it if I make it again, I'd add some onion and some green cabbage as well.

Very good. I used sirloin instead of flank as I was making your Recipe #479915, and using sirloin for that. Really loved the addition of the bean sprouts, which added a lot of freshness and crunch, but felt the salad really need the addition of onion, so added a small red one, sliced into rings.
