I used dried cranberries instead of the golden raisins because that is what I had on hand. The salad came together quickly and was very delicious!

I used turkey bacon, rice vinegar, and regular dark raisins to make this delicious salad. For even easier prep, I bought the small amounts of broccoli, red onion, and sunflower seeds needed from the salad bar at my local grocery store. This recipe actually made enough for my husband and me to each have generous servings for two nights.
