Very easy to prepare, and healthy too (except maybe for the oil). Nice combinations of flavours and crunch. I usually skip the dressing on salads, but as I made this for a dinner party, I put the dressing in a seperate bowl for everyone to add as they want. And the dressing was excellent! I used sultanas instead of raisins, and erred on the side of caution in the minced garlic - but really no need too. Definitely one I'll make again!
