For a healthier option, substitute Greek yogurt for some or all of the mayonnaise. To toast the almonds, spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes, or until lightly golden. Watch carefully as they can burn quickly. If you don't have dried cranberries, you can use fresh cranberries that have been lightly sweetened. Add a touch of finely chopped red onion or shallot for extra flavor. Consider adding a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or dill for a vibrant aroma.
