Thanksgiving Jellied Cranberry Relish Salad

Martha Kaczmarskyj

Makes 12 Servings

 

I found this recipe in some magazine many years ago, adjusted it a little for personal taste, and enjoy the fresh light taste every Thanksgiving. This recipe is not everyone's favorite. It appears that my mother, brother George and I enjoy this dish the most.

 

Ingredients

bullet

1 pound fresh cranberries

bullet

2 large navel oranges washed and cut into chunks

bullet

1 ¾ to 2 cups granulated sugar

bullet

1 3-ounce package lime gelatin

bullet

2 envelopes unflavored gelatin

bullet

1 ½ cups boiling water

bullet

1 cup diced celery

bullet

1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans

 

Directions

  1. Chop cranberries and oranges in fool processor using a steel blade.
  2. Stir in 1 3/4 cups of the sugar and let stand for 2 hours, stirring every half hour.
  3. In a small bowl mix lime gelatin and unflavored gelatin. Stir in boiling water until gelatins dissolve.
  4. Add to cranberry mixture and stir in celery and nuts. Taste and add remaining 1/4 cup sugar if desired.
