This salad is really good as a side dish, and I've brought it to parties with good reviews. I'm sure if you topped it with some marinated tofu that this could be a nice main dish.

The dressing has a nice balance between sweet and sour, and the nuts give it a nice crunch. I usually leave out the onions, and it goes fine.

I always use unsalted sunflower seeds and almonds, I'm not sure how the salt affects the flavor.
