This was a great holiday side. Next time I would add salt with the cranberries and thyme. I also used toasted pecans instead if the almonds.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

How to Toast Nuts
Toasting nuts adds crunch and intensifies their flavor. To toast nuts in the oven, spread nuts in single layer in shallow baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 10 to 15 min. or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.
