This is an incredibly delightful-and incredibly easy-cranberry salad, perfect for year 'round. This works well with your favorite holiday meal, and is a perfect compliment for a light summer meal. I've even had this for lunch, so good!! This recipe was created by one of the teachers my mother works with. Ingredients:
2 (16 ounce) cans whole berry cranberry sauce |
2 (20 ounce) cans crushed pineapple |
1 cup crushed pecans (or other favorite nut) |
2 medium sized apples (unpeeled) |
Directions:
1. Strain the liquid from both cans of crushed pineapple. Good tip-put the pineapple into a fine mesh sieve and press it down with the bottom of a bowl. Make sure you have most of the juice removed. You can save the pineapple juice if you have another recipe to use it in-I save mine & make smoothies for the kids.
2. In a large mixing bowl put both cans of strained pinapple & both cans of cranberry sauce.
3. Add 1 cup of crushed pecans. Add more or less (or none) depending on taste.
4. Core and dice two medium sized apples. Using a firmer apple, like Fuji, helps it keep it's consistency.
5. Mix all ingredients together, making sure you have no clumps of cranberry sauce. Chill and serve. Enjoy!
