For a nuttier flavor, try toasting the almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until golden brown. If fresh cranberries are not available, frozen cranberries can be used. Thaw them slightly before blending into the vinaigrette. Adjust the amount of vinaigrette to your liking. Start with a small amount and add more as needed. Feel free to substitute other types of cheese, such as goat cheese or feta cheese, based on your preference. For an extra touch of sweetness, add a drizzle of honey or maple syrup to the vinaigrette.
