Grandmas Cranberry Salad

Ingredients :

  • 1 pkg cherry Jell-o (3 oz box)
  • 1 c hot water
  • 1 c sugar
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 c drained crushed pineapple, juice reserved (8 oz can)
  • 1/2 – 1 c pineapple juice (use the reserved juice and add water to make 1/2 to 1 cup liquid)
  • 1 c ground cranberries
  • 1 orange, ground
  • 1/2 c pecans, chopped

Instructions : 

1. Boil the cup of water. Dissolve the Jell-o in the hot water in a 9×13-inch pan; mix well. Add the sugar, lemon juice, and pineapple juice. Stir to dissolve well.
2. Add the remaining ingredients and mix. Chill overnight.
3. Grandma’s Notes: Chop up the pecans first before getting the blender wet. Or you could just buy pre-chopped pecans and save a step. Use the blender or food processor to chop up cranberries, then orange, seeded, and partially peeled. The chopped peel gives it that special zing!
