This is one of my favourite salads I had got hold of many years ago. I thought of sharing this out with you guys. There are a lot of proteins in a contrast of textures in this recipe. The raisins are a sweet, chewy accent to crisp apples, and almonds add crunch to the whole grain pasta. A hearty, all in one salad perfect for a summer lunch or dinner. Enjoy the Salad
