Jellied Cranberry Salad
3 oranges,
2 apples,
1 qt. cranberries,
2 C. sugar
1/2 C. chopped pecans
1/2 C. hot water,
2 boxes
black cherry jello (you can use any flavor of red jello,
but black cherry is the BEST!)
---
In a food
processor, or by hand, coarsely grind the fruits, but do not
peel them. Add sugar and wait until it
dissolves before adding the
nuts and the jello mixture.
Stir in hot water and chill until set.

Internet note:
It's tart and sweet and crunchy. Everyone raves
about it, and I'm always asked to bring
it.

serving day (or the night before)
