Wonderful broccoli salad!! Since my sister is a diabetic, I omitted the raisins and mixed the salad dressing with 1 Tbsp.of cider vinegar (didn't have tarragon) and then added 1/3 cup Splenda, beating all together. Great recipe!! Thanks!!

Great! I did not have the vinegar the recipe called for, so I used balsamic vinegar instead - I mixed it with regular ol' Ranch Dressing - I used a little less dressing that the recipe called for - I don't like the dressing to overpower the food.

This salad was delicious! The different textures and colors made the dish so tasty. I used a poppy seed dressing. I omitted the tarragon vinegar so it wouldn't compete with the flavor of the dressing.

This is just plain good!! I used a little light mayo, a little poppy seed dressing and a little regular mayo to make the required amount of creamy salad dressing the recipe called for. I reduced the vinegar a bit since the poppy seed dressing already had vinegar in it.

We were told to add more broccoli into our diet. I am glad I tried this one. Yum. I made the recipe as is except I used lite mayo and white wine vinegar with 3 packets of splenda. It was wonderful. Oh, I also added cheese, but I wish I wouldn't have :) This is a keeper.

Good. Next time I will cut down on the vinegar. I added sunflower seeds. Used a purple onion instead of green. I also added sharp cheddar. Thanks!

Wonderful flavors and texture!! My husband didn't think he would like it when he saw it but loved it! I made some minor substitutions, but also, I steamed the broccoli for about a minute then put it in an ice bath. It was still very crunchy but not entirely raw--I'm not a huge fan of raw broccoli. I used a fat-free poppy seed dressing with white wine vinegar, and used black seedless grapes and dried cranberries. I also used turkey bacon. Was delicious!!!
