For an extra layer of flavor, try using smoked bacon. Toast the almonds and sunflower seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, or until lightly golden and fragrant. This will enhance their nutty flavor. The dressing can be made ahead of time and stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Be sure to whisk it again before using. If you prefer a sweeter dressing, add an extra tablespoon of brown sugar. For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and add crumbled feta cheese for a salty and tangy alternative.
