Notes

Cyndi’s note: Raisins and sunflower seeds could be added to this salad for a little additional crunch and sweetness.

Handwritten marginal note on the printout lists a variant ingredient list: red pepper, green pepper, red onion, mayo, cauliflower, broccoli, green onion, bacon, cheese — suggesting a modified version of this recipe was made with peppers, red/green onion, and cheese added.
