For a richer flavor, toast the pecans in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently. Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar to your liking, depending on the tartness of the cranberries and apples. Greek yogurt adds a tangy counterpoint to the sweetness of the salad. Regular yogurt will provide a milder flavor. If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw and drain them well before chopping. For a festive touch, add a handful of golden raisins or chopped dried apricots.
