I really enjoyed this. the raisins add a lovely sweetness. I generally really enjoy salads with red wine vinegar so this was right up my ally. will make again.

This was a delicious side salad for us. I used Israeli couscous - I thought that it might be "prettier" with the big ball grains. The salad is easily thrown together, and looks good, although the broccoli loses it's color after awhile, coming in contact with the acids. I added in some chopped fresh parsley to counter that. The flavor combination is nice, the raisins do add just the right amount of sweetness, as another reviewer says. Thanks, Jamilah.
