1

In large bowl, carefully toss all ingredients; transfer to serving bowl or plate.
2

Garnish with extra chèvre and dried cranberries, if desired. Serve immediately.

For easy holiday prep, toss all ingredients ahead of time except avocado and dressings, and store covered in refrigerator. Add remaining ingredients just before serving.
Try to chop all the ingredients to the same size--it helps with texture and makes for a prettier presentation.
