I also add cauliflower and use splenda in place of real sugar as i'm diabetic and when I take it places no one ever knows the difference in taste. I add the raisins just before serving as it will darken the cauliflower. YUMMY dressing!

Use coleslaw dressing instead.Cranberries or mixed dried fruit is better than the raisins.
