Cranberry-Almond Vinaigrette image

I got the idea for this dressing from my love for Post Cranberry and Almond Cereal - I thought it was a great flavor combination. I like this dressing over a mixed green salad, potato salad (yes, it actually works) and even grilled salmon or warm roast turkey breast and glazed ham steaks at Christmas. I really love the color of this dressing - whatever it touches looks so pretty.

This vinaigrette is a bit too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding a little water or vinegar to thin it out.
