green onion, chopped

raisins

sunflower kernels

DRESSING:

mayonnaise

sugar

white vinegar

Delicious.  I used pre-cooked real bacon in the recipe though.  Will make this again!

I make a dressing from lite mayo and lite miracle whip with stevia (added to taste) as my husband is a diabetic. The miracle whip eliminates the use of white vinegar and adds a "softer vinegar" taste to the recipe. I do use crisp, crumbled bacon, raisins OR cranraisins, and sunflower seeds as well. If you want a little crunch too, I have used chopped, well rinsed water chestnuts to the dish. My Mom has always requested this dish for our get togethers.

Really nice and tasty- much like the salads you get in the buffet lines at the soup and salad restaurants.  I lightly toasted the sunflower seeds to bring out the nutty flavors- and I just like them that way.

Everyone that I've served this salad to loves it! We often add shredded carrots to it.

I also add cauliflower and use splenda in place of real sugar as i'm diabetic and when I take it places no one ever knows the difference in taste. I add the raisins just before serving as it will darken the cauliflower. YUMMY dressing!
