Apples and cranberries give this salsa a holiday flavor, while garlic and jalapenos give it just the kick salsa needs. You can serve it up as a dip with chips, like a regular salsa, or as a complement to meat dishes. Sometimes I substitute half the sugar with Splenda to lessen the calories. Works and tastes great! -Pam Leni, Rockford, Illinois

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (4-pounds) pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1medium onion, chopped
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (12-ounces) bag fresh cranberries (3 1/2 cups; not frozen)
1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar, or to taste
1/4 cup Seville orange juice (or 2 tablespoon each of fresh lime juice and regular orange juice)
1 cup packed cilantro sprigs, coarsely chopped

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in upper third.
  • Toss pineapple and onion with oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large 4-sided sheet pan, then roast, stirring occasionally, until charred in spots, 40 minutes to 1 hour.

Tips:

  • Dice the ingredients evenly: This will help ensure that the salsa is evenly distributed and flavorful. Cut the cranberries and pineapple into pieces that are about the same size.
  • Add some heat: If you like a little spice, add a jalapeño or serrano pepper to the salsa. Be sure to remove the seeds and ribs before adding the pepper, so the salsa isn't too spicy.
  • Let the salsa chill: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. Cover the salsa and refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
