Although your servings are very small compared to what we usually put on the table, that's really not as important as the taste of the salad, & that, we enjoyed! The 2 of us had enough for two meals, & we loved the raisins & cranberries in it! The only change I made was to steam the broccoli just enough to soften it up slightly! I like it raw, but my other half prefers it a little less so! Healthy & crunchy, that's for me! Thanks for sharing it! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this fall's round of Pick A Chef]

Very nice broccoli salad! I don't care for onions so omitted them, and chopped my carrots instead of shredding. I liked the tangy/sweet orange dressing on this. Thanks for sharing your recipe! Made for Fall Pick-A-Chef 2011
