Cranberry Salsa Ingredients

  • 12 oz cranberries

Preparation Instructions

  • Wash cranberries and remove any stems.
  • Remove seeds and stem from jalapeno pepper.
  • Place cranberries, cilantro, green onions, jalapeno, sugar, cumin and lime juice in food processor and pulse to chop.
  • Place mixture in a bowl and chill for an hour in the refrigerator.
  • Serve over cream cheese or just with chips.
  • Also would be yummy as a side sauce with turkey, pork or chicken.

Notes

Don't over chop the cranberries with the food processor. You want a rough chop. Make the salsa ahead of time so it has at least an hour to chill in the refrigerator. It gives the flavors a chance to come together. You can serve it in a bowl and add some tortilla chips, but my favorite way to serve it is over a brick of cream cheese with crackers. I like to use water crackers but you could also use Ritz crackers, Wheat Thins or your favorite cracker.
