Normally, I don't like a "sweet" dressing. This is the exception to the rule. I think it works very well because of the addition of the sunflower seeds. I also used Bacon Bits, because I didn't want the extra grease in this. A great summertime salad. Thnx for posting, Flour! Made for Comfort Cafe Summer 2009.
