Sweet and tart fruits with marshmallows and whipped cream. Good side for poultry, pork or ham. Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) bag fresh cranberries |
1 cup sugar |
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, well drained (i use the ones in juice, not heavy syrup) |
1 cup green grape, halved |
2 cups apples, diced and not peeled (i used one small green pippin and one small honeycrips) |
1/2 lb miniature marshmallow (1/2 of a package) |
1/2 cup macadamia nuts, chopped (optional or could use other nuts) |
1 1/2 cups heavy cream |
Directions:
1. Mince the cranberries in a food processor. Do this in two batches.
2. Stir together the cranberries and sugar. Let sit and chill for about 8 hours. (I do this the morning before I want to serve this salad.).
3. After about 8 hours, drain the cranberries well and stir in the well-drained crushed pineapple. Add the grapes and apples and stir. Then fold in the marshmallows and nuts.
4. Let sit overnight in the refrigerator.
5. A few hours before serving, whip the cream until it is becoming stiff. Fold into the fruit mixture.
6. Chill until serving.
