  1. In a large bowl, add the chicken, celery, cashews, cranberries, and black pepper.
  2. Toss it all together well. 
  3. Taste a bite with all the components, check for salt. 
  4. Some brands of cashews available at the store are very salty, negating the need to add additional salt. therefore, add salt according to taste. 
  5. Add the mustard and mayonnaise.  Mix well. 
  6. Adjust the amount of mayonnaise to personal preference. 
  7. Taste again for black pepper and salt.  Add any if needed.
