  1. I was very unsure about this odd mix of ingredients but was looking for something a bit kid friendly to do with broccoli and stumbled on this recipe. WONDERFUL! My husband looked into the bowl that was chilling and rolled his eyes. Next thing I knew he was knee deep in it and had to be reprimanded to ensure there was enough for dinner. The kids enjoyed this. They still didn't really eat the broccoli but loved the grapes and strawberries this way. I didn't have sunflower seeds but had some crushed pecans that I added. Was a great addition. I will definitely make this again. We're not a very sauce type of family so I may try to reduce the mayo a bit as well. Excellent! Highly recommend!
     
  2. I could just eat this and eat this. There is not stopping me now! What a delicious refreshing salad, with lots of fiber and nutrition. What a great mix of flavors we have here!
     
  3. I was unsure of the combination of ingrediants but I have tried a couple of other Kittencal recipes and been pleased so figured I would give this one a try. Turns out Kittencal is right. This is easy and delicious. Did not have sunflower seeds so used toasted almonds and while this was a good substitution I do believe the sunflower seeds would have been even better! Was still good the next day too although a little pink tinted from the strawberries. Very good summer side dish that I will eat often this summer. Thanks so much for posting it!
     
  4. I thought this sounded good, but I couldn't believe until I tried it. It turned out so well in fact that I even served it to my future in-laws. They aren't necessarily picky, but they know good food and absolutely loved this. The only thing that I chose to do differently was to replace the sunflower seeds with roasted, sliced almonds. Excellent idea Kittencal
     
  5. This was delicious! I challenge you to not "predetermine" that you would not like this based on the ingredients. I promise you will be pleasantly surprised. I did make one change! I don't care for apple cider vinegar so I used Raspberry wine vinegar. It was wonderful. It's incrediably easy to prepare and keeps well. Thanks for sharing Kittencal.
