This is just plain good!! I used a little light mayo, a little poppy seed dressing and a little regular mayo to make the required amount of creamy salad dressing the recipe called for. I reduced the vinegar a bit since the poppy seed dressing already had vinegar in it.

This turned out very well. I had eaten a similar salad at a family member’s previously and wanted to make it myself. This recipe was as close as I could find, but it turned out even better. I made it for 40 people, with alot of other food, so most of my measurements were more by sight and taste, but with these ingrediants it turned out perfectly. This was the only item that had no leftovers at the 40 person event.

I had this salad at a church fellowship yesterday. It was refreshing. I enjoyed the variety of flavors that come together in this salad. The church member that made the salad substituted almonds for sunflower seeds and left out the grapes and it was still great. I’m going to start making this at home!

Loved this recipe. Made it for a large group and everyone wanted the recipe. I used Craisins instead of Raisins reduced the dressing a bit. Started with less mayonnaise and added about 4 tsps. of wine vinegar and sugar to taste. Also used crushed cashews. Fantastic!

Wonderful flavors and texture!! My husband didn’t think he would like it when he saw it but loved it! I made some minor substitutions, but also, I steamed the broccoli for about a minute then put it in an ice bath. It was still very crunchy but not entirely raw–I’m not a huge fan of raw broccoli. I used a fat-free poppy seed dressing with white wine vinegar, and used black seedless grapes and dried cranberries. I also used turkey bacon. Was delicious!!!
