Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries are more flavorful and have a better texture than frozen cranberries.
- Chop the cranberries finely. This will help them distribute evenly throughout the salad and prevent them from being too tart.
- Use a variety of nuts. This will add flavor and texture to the salad. Some good options include walnuts, pecans, almonds, and pistachios.
- Don't overmix the salad. Overmixing can make the salad mushy.
- Chill the salad before serving. This will help the flavors to meld and make the salad more refreshing.
