Festive Cranberry-Pineapple Salad
Prep Time:
10 min
Total Time:
5 hr 40 min
Makes:
14 servings, 1/2 cup each
What You Need
 
1 can (20 oz.) DOLE Crushed Pineapple, undrained
2 pkg.  (4-serving size each) or 1 pkg. (8-serving size) JELL-O Raspberry Flavor Gelatin
1 can (16 oz.) whole berry cranberry sauce
1 medium  DOLE Apple, chopped
2/3 cup chopped PLANTERS Walnuts
Make It
 

DRAIN pineapple, reserving liquid in 1-qt. liquid measuring cup. Remove 1 Tbsp. of the crushed pineapple; set aside for garnish. Add enough cold water to reserved liquid to measure 3 cups; pour into large saucepan. Bring to boil; remove from heat. Add gelatin; stir at least 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add cranberry sauce; stir until well blended. (Note: Due to the presence of whole berries in the cranberry sauce, the gelatin mixture will not be smooth.) Pour into large bowl. Refrigerate 1-1/2 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites.)

STIR in remaining pineapple, the apples and walnuts; stir gently until well blended. Pour into medium serving bowl.

REFRIGERATE 4 hours or until firm. Top with reserved crushed pineapple just before serving. Store leftover gelatin in refrigerator.

" I have been trying different cranberry recipes for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I made this for Christmas and when my mother tasted this, she said "This is it, you don't need to try another recipe!" I was worried that the gelatin mixture didn't seem to thicken after sitting in the fridge for two hours but I added the fruit anyway and put it in the fridge overnight and the consistency was perfect the next day. Oh I used mandarin oranges instead of apples and used that juice along with the pineapple juice and water. This is my go-to cranberry recipe from now on!"
