This is a great basic for sure! Have made it more than a few times, first because it works for close family member who is vegetarian and has gluten and corn allergies—offers protein along with veg. But everyone who’s tried it has loved it! <br /><br />I’ve sometimes added a little scallion or shallot for a mild onion flavor. <br /><br />I use dried cranberries or Craisins (reduced sugar) rather than raisins. I mix some in, along with some sunflower seeds, when dressing, but also offer some of each for guests to add on top.
