I made this for a family get together and it was a hit! I did use red wine vinegar because that's all I had in the house and splenda because I'm diabetic, but it would be great as is too.

This salad is great!!! I've fixed it several times and everyone wants the recipe. Makes a really nice summer salad. You could even add chicken to this for a little different twist. Haven't tried that yet, but think I will the next time I fix it.

I absolutely cannot wait to try this! I have a family reunion in June and this is what I'm taking! The addition of the sunflower seeds and craisins sounds good too, I think I'll do it that way!
