This salad was a complete disaster! The flavors didn't go together at all, and the texture was mushy.

I don't think the cranberries really add anything to this salad. I would leave them out next time.

This salad is a bit too heavy on the mayonnaise for my taste. I would use less mayonnaise next time.

I found the couscous to be a bit dry. I added some extra olive oil and lemon juice to moisten it up.
