  1. I tripled this salad for a Relief Society Summer Salad Social and to leave some at home for my family, and it was a hit! I got plenty of compliments from the ladies at the social as well as from my husband and kids :) I added sliced carrots and used craisins instead of raisins and used apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar. I also added a Tbsp. of onion powder.
     
  2. This was good and easy to make. I wasn't crazy about the raisins but I am not a big raisin fan. I used Splenda instead of sugar as that is all I buy. Followed the rest of the recipe as written. Will make again but will not put in raisins (personal preference)
     
  3. This is completely deserving of 5 stars. I used Splenda for the sugar but aside from that I went right by the recipe using white wine vinegar. This is terrific, an ideal summer salad. It's so easy to put together and a real delight to munch. This is sweet with a hint of saltiness and a light tang from the vinegar and yogurt. I also love the fact the dressing supplies a light coating without drowning the ingredients. Thank you Reds for sharing this!
     
  4. I was going to post this recipe, but I see you already have. The one difference between the original recipe and this one is that the original also includes a cup of raisins. I personally like the raisins in the salad. I usually use golden raisins and red grapes. The secret to the salad coming out reall well, is to chope the broccoli very small. Also, I like to slice the celery very thin. There are a LOT of broccoli salads with mayonnaise. Most of them also have bacon and maybe cheese too. They are all so high fat and calories. I like this one because it is so much healthier and lower fat/cal and also tastes really good.
     
  5. Great broccoli salad! I liked the extra crunch of the celery and the sweetness of the grapes. Made a great lunch! Thanks!
