Reviews
Really nice and tasty- much like the salads you get in the buffet lines at the soup and salad restaurants. I lightly toasted the sunflower seeds to bring out the nutty flavors- and I just like them that way.
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!
Everyone that I've served this salad to loves it! We often add shredded carrots to it.
My family thinks this recipe is good just as is.
I use white grapes cut in half instead of raisins. Sherri1219
Use coleslaw dressing instead.Cranberries or mixed dried fruit is better than the raisins.
