Chef Brian Whitmer of Paradise Foods in Corte Madera, California came up with this recipe for the California Walnut Board.

Ingredients: 1 cup mayonnaise (low-fat is okay)
1/4 cup raspberry vinegar
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground pepper
6 cups (1 - 1 1/4 pounds.) broccoli florets, cut or broken in half-inch pieces
1/2 cup dried cranberries
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/2 cup chopped, toasted walnuts
1 medium carrot, peeled and grated
Instructions:

In a large bowl combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, sugar, salt and pepper, and stir until smoothly blended.

Blanch the broccoli for 1-2 minutes. Add the broccoli, cranberries, raisins, walnuts and carrot, then stir and toss until the ingredients are evenly coated with the dressing. Chill before serving.
