The salad was a bit bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning.

This is a great recipe to make ahead of time for a party or potluck. It's also really easy to customize - I added some chopped cucumber and red onion to mine.

I loved the combination of sweet and savory in this salad. The cranberries added a nice tartness that balanced out the sweetness of the honey.
