Raw Broccoli Salad (Reduced Calorie/Low Fat) image

I got this recipe off of the Splenda website and recently brought it to a family reunion as an alternative to all the high fat dishes that abound at our get-togethers. It went over with flying colors and no one could even tell that I used Splenda instead of sugar! The dressing is so light that you can't see it, but it is packed with flavor so you will definitely taste it!
