toast 1/4 cup almonds in pan with hazelnuts.

**MY CHANGES:
9
I couldnt find pea shoots, plus it sounded a little bland so I used
10
chopped fresh parsley instead. I also increased the amount of
11
dressing, nuts, and cranberries - the nuts n cranberries really make
12
the salad with flavor and texture. And I mixed everything together,
13
none of that drizzle and spooning nonsense.
