When I need a summery side dish, I love finding raw vegetable salads similar in texture and feel to a pasta salad without the carb load. This broccoli-cauliflower salad has an amazingly satisfying taste and texture, making it an enjoyable way to get more vegetables into your diet. I love how the crisp of the celery compliments the crunch of the cauliflower and I cannot get enough of how the hint of salty bacon is set off perfectly by the mild sweetness of golden raisins. Mmmm, mmmm, delicious!
