My 'bride' lost her recipe for her fav. turkey-day salad. THIS IS IT.. Once again, i'm the hero of the keyboard. Happy Birthday!!! Thanks Myger

This is by far the best recipe for cranberry jello. It is always requested for Thanksgiving dinner every year.

I have always made this using fresh cranberries. Put a package of cranberries in your food processor and rough chop, stir in 1 cup sugar and chill overnight. Drain cranberries before using and substitute them for the canned cranberry in the recipe above. You won't believe the difference that fresh makes.

The way I have always made this family favorite is to dissolve a 6 oz. box of red Jell-o in a cup of boiling water, add it to the dish to be used, then add, in succession, a can of whole cranberry sauce, broken up, a can of crushed pineapple in its own juice (add the juice, too) and mix in 1/2 c. or more, to taste, of chopped walnuts or pecans. Refrigerate to set. Great with turkey, roast chicken, or ham. T.K.

Just made this for early Thanksgiving dinner -- and everyone loved it! Very easy to make and had just the right amount of jello/cranberry for great taste.
