Making the Cranberry Salsa

Let’s get started on making our cranberry salsa.

• Add 2 cups of fresh cranberries, 1 jalapeno, 1 shallot, and 2 green onions to a food processor.
• I use fresh cranberries, but you can use frozen cranberries too. If using frozen, make sure to thaw them out first.
• Cover the processor and blend for 1 minute or until everything is blended. Do not over blend.

Adding the Citus to the Cranberry Salsa

Now to add the rest of the ingredients.

• Open the food processor and scrape the sides.
• Add 1 teaspoon of salt (or to taste), and 3 tablespoons of sugar (or more if needed).
• Also add 1/4 cup of fresh orange juice, and the juice of 1/2 a lime.
• Cove and blend again for another 1 minute. This will allow all the ingredients to meld and create the most delicious salsa.
• Pour it into a container and allow it to sit for about 2-3 hours.
• Before enjoying, sprinkle some fresh cilantro on top.

Serving Suggestions

There are so many ways of enjoying this salsa recipe.

• Serve it with chips or crackers.
• Mix it in with some thawed cream cheese to make a creamy dip.
• Spread some cream cheese on toast and then add the salsa on top and you will be in love.
• I use it in place of cranberry sauce for our holiday poultry dinner.
