CRANBERRY SALSA

My sister sent me this recipe lately and I knew as soon as I saw the picture that I wanted to make it......it is beautiful!! So last night I tried ti and I couldn't stay out of it, it was SOOO good!! I can't wait to serve it to our friends tomorrow and it looks so Christmasy to boot!! I would have never thought to marry these ingredients together but they work perfectly.


1 bag of fresh cranberries
1 bunch of cilantro
1 med. onion (sweet onions are best)
1 small jalapeno (without seeds)
1 cup of sugar or Splenda (more or less depending on your tastes)
Juice of 1 lime

Throw everything together in a food processor and then refrigerate for at least an hour.  This allows the juices to really blend.  Serve alone or over a brick of cream cheese with chips or crackers.  Good as a salsa on your favorite meat as well.

**I got this photo off the internet because it was pretty but mine is not near as chunky as this one.

  1. think next time I'll add less sugar and a little more jalapeno..maybe 1 1/2 depending how strong they are..we liked it too..can't wait to try it with halibut.

  2. YES! I think it would be great on halibut too. And I didn't add enough jalepeno either...I like it with a kick.
