Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the slivered almonds onto a baking sheet, and toast until the nuts start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, 5 to 10 minutes. Watch the nuts carefully as they bake, because they burn quickly. Once toasted, set the nuts aside to cool to room temperature.
- Mix together the mayonnaise, milk, and sugar in a large salad bowl. Stir in the bacon bits and Parmesan cheese until the dressing is well combined and creamy.
- Place the spinach leaves, chopped cauliflower, and toasted almonds into the salad bowl, and stir lightly to coat with dressing.

Tips:
- For the freshest and tastiest salad, use ripe and in-season raspberries and spinach. You can also use frozen raspberries if fresh ones are not available.
- If you don't have feta cheese, you can substitute another type of cheese, such as goat cheese or blue cheese. You can also omit the cheese altogether if you prefer.
- To make the dressing, you can use either red wine vinegar or balsamic vinegar. If you don't have either of these vinegars, you can use a different type of vinegar, such as apple cider vinegar or white wine vinegar.
- If you want a sweeter dressing, you can add a little bit of honey or maple syrup. You can also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- To make the salad, simply combine the raspberries, spinach, walnuts, and cheese in a bowl. Then, drizzle the dressing over the salad and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

This raspberry spinach salad is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you are looking for a refreshing and nutritious salad, give this raspberry spinach salad a try.
