Nancy’s Cranberry Salad

Nancy got this from Ma Wilson, Nancy’s mother’s friend from Janesville Wi in the 1950s

First you freeze whole cranberries and grind in a food processor until there are no large chunks. It may take several batches as you can easily double the recipe.

• 1 lb pkg whole cranberries (save all juice, ground frozen)
• 1 cup sugar

Stir together and let stand overnight

The next day. Heat water almost to a boil and dissolve gelatin in it. 

• 1/3 cup water
• 1 pkg knox gelatin

Dissolve. Pour over cranberry & sugar mixture and stir well

ADD:

• 8 oz can crushed pineapple, 
• 6 oz Chopped Nuts (optional)
• 1/2 pkg miniature marshmallows (or more if desired)

Mix above together well and FOLD in

• 1 carton cool whip (or more if desired)

If not sweet enough you may add more sugar.

Serve chilled

Can be frozen and used later.
