- No cranberries on hand? Golden or dark raisins will do the trick.
- Add your favorite nuts: Almonds, hazelnuts, or pecans for an added flavor and crunchiness.

- Chili flakes can be added to kick it a notch in the heat department.
- Fresh thyme or rosemary can be added if you have them fresh on hand.
