My husband, brother-in-law and I just finished making this recipe, and we think it's the best broccoli salad we have had in some time. The taste of the fresh vegetables comes through The golden raisins and sunflowers kernels give it an extra punch of flavor.

This recipe ROCKS! There are a ton of Broccoli Salads on Recipezaar, but this is the one I was looking for (we had something similar in a restaurant once). Most recipe's don't have the raisins or sunflower seeds and that is what "makes it" for us. Thanks so much for posting this recipe!

I live in Northern Canada, and really love it here. I work full time, have two great kids; Robyn - aged 8 and Braeden - aged 5. I have a great Hubby who does most of the cooking during the week, as he is home much earlier than I. We love to entertain on the weekends, and often have large dinner parties. It's lots of fun, and we really like spending time with those we aren't able to see as often as we would like. The Hubby and I enjoy setting the menu, and then being up to our arm-pits in work!! Our guests always love coming to our house for good food, good friendship, and good wine. What else is there?.......
