Fresh Cranberry Jello Salad

This salad is delicious to serve with your Thanksgiving dinner. I fix it every year for our "Praise in the Park" Thanksgiving celebration at LifeChurch. I hope you enjoy it as much as we do!


1 package fresh cranberries
1-1/2 cups sugar
1 large package raspberry Jello
1 cup boiling water
1 can crushed pineapple (drained)
¾ cup diced celery
2 apples (grated)
1/2  cup pecans (I like more so I use 1 cup)


Preparation time: 15 minutes. Servings: 12.

Grind or chop cranberries in blender or food processor. Work sugar into cranberries until completely dissolved. 
Dissolve Jello in boiling water and add to cranberries. 
Add pineapple, celery, apples and nuts. 
Chill for a few hours before serving.
