For an extra burst of flavor, try toasting the raisins lightly before adding them to the salad. Feel free to adjust the amount of brown sugar to your desired level of sweetness. Adding a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg to the dressing can add a warm, aromatic note. For a healthier twist, substitute Greek yogurt for some of the sour cream and use a sugar substitute. The salad can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
