I just made cranberry salad for turkey day.
Haven't made the stuff in years, but I figured since it's also my birthday on Thursday I am going to go all out and make it a special day for me and my boyfriend (who can barely boil water).

3. Here ya go.
1 pkg. Cherry gelatin
1 cup hot water
1 cup pineapple juice drained from crushed pineapple
1 cup sugar
1 cup ground raw cranberries
1 cup drained crushed pineapple
1 cup finely chopped celery

Mix hot water with gelatin; stir thoroughly. Add pineapple juice. While gelatin cools, pour sugar over ground cranberries. When gelatin begins to thicken, add cranberry-sugar mixture, crushed pineapple, celery, and nut meats. Place in mold and chill until firm.

6. Mmmmmm....sounds GOOD!
People in other parts of the world find America's 'salads' made with Jello a very strange concoction... :silly: :silly: :silly:

But I had them as a child, and loved them then! GOOD!

Thanks for this recipe.

(Are raw cranberries good?)

4. I've never heard of it
Thanks for the recipe.

I make a cranberry sauce. Cranberries, water, and sugar. It makes the whole berry kind and I actually use Equal instead of sugar.

Have a great Thanksgiving. :)

5. My Grandma made it every year when I was growing up...
...and I loved the stuff.

Of course she also had the bad taste to make fruitcake which I think is a crime against nature.
