I'm not a big fan of pecans, so I substituted walnuts instead. It was still delicious!

This dish is a bit too spicy for my taste. I would reduce the amount of chili powder next time.

I found that the orzo was a bit too al dente for my liking. I would cook it for a few minutes longer next time.

This dish is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe next time.

This dish is a great way to use up leftover cranberries. I always have a bag of cranberries in my freezer, and this is a great way to use them up.
