Cranberry-Pecan Wheat Berry Salad

Reviews
Very good. I made a few changes by increasing the cider vinegar by 2 T and the mustard by 1 t. I also added 2T of maple syrup to the dressing. It was reviewed very positively by my guests. I will make this again !
Excellent. I toasted the pecans but other than that followed the recipe. I prepared the salad while the grain cooked, let the flavours blend. I will make this again and again. Janet. VFE
