| This is a salad I grew up on, and make every year. It's not the holidays without it!
Make the night before so it sets properly.
Cranberry Salad
1 bag fresh cranberries, chopped up fine in food processor or grinder
1 cup walnuts chopped
one apple, chopped
one 8 oz can crushed pineapple, drained well, juice reserved
peel of one orange grated
1-2 small boxes "red" jello, I like strawberry best
sugar to taste if needed (some years the cranberries are a little more tart than other years
combine everything except the jello into a bowl. Mix the jello according to the package directions, using the reserved pineapple juice as part of the liquid. Pour the jello over the mixture, chill overnight.
How much Jello you use is up to your tastes. My family likes just enough to hold it all together, my cousin likes to use more jello. I usually use about 3 cups of the jello.
