Christmas Cranberry Salad

By Nancylca

My Grandmother's recipe is a classic cranberry Jell-o salad that is sure to bring some holiday cheer to any feast. Served in a pretty bowl perfect for Christmas dinner, this recipe goes well on the side of roast turkey or served for dessert with a dollop of whipped cream.

Ingredients

• 2 cups raw cranberries
• 1 orange
• 2 teaspoons lemon juice
• 1 small package cherry Jello

Step 1

Grind cranberries and orange in a food processor or blender. Sprinkle with sugar and lemon juice and let stand 2 hours.
