For an extra layer of flavor, toast the pumpkin seeds along with the pecans before adding them to the salad. If you don't have raspberry vinegar, you can substitute it with red wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar. Add a pinch of sugar to balance the acidity. This salad is a great make-ahead dish. It can be prepared a day in advance, allowing the flavors to develop even further. To lighten up the salad, consider using Greek yogurt in place of some or all of the mayonnaise. Add sunflower seeds for extra crunch, or use maple syrup instead of sugar for a more natural sweetener.
