This is great on a croissant, in a pita pocket, or on bread. It's a great use for leftover turkey.
I really enjoyed this combination of flavors. You may want to add a few more dried cranberries, so you can have that little tangy zip in every bite! Adding a bit more mayonnaise would help the ingredients cling together more. This would be good for leftover chicken or turkey. Thanks!

Excellent with 1 C. walnuts as a substistue for almonds. We added another 1/4 cup of dried cranberries, used about 1/2 C. mayo. Serve on spinach for an even healtier salad.
Taking into account the other reviews, I made the following tweaks to this recipe: ~ Added raw sunflower kernels to the salad ~ Added 2 TBSP of cranberry sauce to 2 TBSP of mayo, a dash of dry mustard and 1/4 wedge of lemon juice and mixed well. Then added the sauce to the salad and mixed it together. ~ Sprinkled chia seeds on top of salad when I served it. I'm sure this recipe is just as delicious as written without the "tweaks." I made this salad last night and it was so good, I could not wait till today for another serving. Ha! I am FEASTING on my second helping and am so enjoying it that I just had to write a review. This salad is OHHHHH so delicious, refreshing and delightful... I suspect I'm going to polish it off by lunchtime!! Bon apetit!!! =)
I loved it!! I thought it would be a little dry so I doubled the mayo to 4 tblsps and added 3 tblsp of cranberry sauce to the mayo and mixed it together,it was great!
I found the recipe somewhat dry so I added about 1/4 cup of homemade cranberry sauce.
Great! I used light mayo and red peppers instead of celery. Awesome! We did have to add more mayo because it was too dry. It would have to go in a pita or wrap because it falls apart.
I love the few simple ingredients and fast time to make. Great on texture and a taste combinations. I agree great for chicken or turkey leftovers!!!!
I used walnuts instead of almonds, added onions and sweet pickle relish. It was fantastic and super easy! Served it over a bed of spinach.
I love this recipe! I had some people over and it was a great way to use leftover turkey, as well as, my leftover cranberry sauce as I added that to the equation based upon one person's post. I made it a second time and the second time I added a couple of tablespoons of fresh squeezed lemon juice, freshly chopped pecans, and a little bit of mustard powder. The second time was even better than the first time! Awesome recipe!
This is a wonderful & healthy salad ! I'm so glad I came upon this recipe! The cranberries give a nice touch of sweetness to the salad. It's nice to go light on the mayonnaise and use healthy almonds & celery !!!! I love it ! I give the salad a dash of salt on top and toast new york style rye bread for a great tasting, healthy sandwich. Two thumbs up for this ! :)
I would use cranberry sauce next time instead of dried cranberrys and maybe add some lemon juice. It needs more zest
Made this with smoked turkey, did not measure anything, added cranberry sauce with whole cranberry's in it. Along with the celery, a sweet onion, sliced almonds and mayonnaise. It is so good !
