    As stated in the recipe this is an 'Ocean Spray' recipe. I love the combo of ingredients! I'm usually not a person who likes sweet with savory things. But the cranberries just melt in your mouth and offers another dimension of flavor!
    I used the Ocean Spray reduced sugar cranberries as I wanted them to be a little more tart. I also used unsalted raw sunflower seeds and didn't add any salt to the recipe as I find the cheese and bacon give it all the saltiness it needs. I also cut the sugar in half as well, that's really a personal taste thing that some others can adjust to taste.
    I've made this a few times now but have waited until I could get a picture to add it here. We just love this salad!!
    (I took a picture before it sat in the fridge. The broccoli usually soaks up a lot of the dressing after it sits for a couple hours)
