Wonderful full of great flavours and textures, I scaled back for 2 serves and there was more than enough so still have a small serve for lunch, the only change I made was to use sultanas for the raisins, thank you MsPia, made for Billboard Recipe tag game.

Awesome salad! Love the sweetness of the cranberries, the crunch of the almonds and the savory of the dressing. I did use rice wine vinegar and only 1/2 tsp salt. It is very well balanced for us. Finished it with a squeeze of lime juice which brightened all the flavours. Thank you for sharing. Made for Billboard Recipe Tag.
