This salad is must at my Thanksgiving dinner. I had a family reunion at my place and this salad was a big hit. My daughter tried to make it and she said it came out exactly perfect.

| 2 | TBsp | Dried Cranberries |
| 1 | TBsp | Parmesan Cheese |
| Sprinkle | Virgin Olive Oil Vinaigrette |
| | Salt to taste |

How to Prepare:

Tips:
- Spring mix is readily available.
- Sweet pecans are available in the store, also. Otherwise, in a small skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat, stir in 1 cup pecan halves and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Cook and stir until pecans are toasted and coated with sugar.
- Plain pecans work just as well as the sugar-coated ones.
