AMAZING PINEAPPLE CRANBERRY SAUCE
This is a variation on classic, fresh Ocean Spray® cranberry sauce! My grandma has made it for years and people who don't like cranberry sauce request that I make this at our events! It's different and great! This is a nice change of pace. and I've yet to meet anyone who doesn't like it! Tastes best if stored in refrigerator overnight.

ZIPPY CRANBERRY SALSA
posted by request. Adapted from Christmas Gifts of Good Taste 1998. This pretty red salsa sure sounds unique - with the addition of fresh cranberries, jalapenos and crushed pineapple. In the cookbook, this is pictured in a canning jar and decorated to give as a gift. Sure hope this is the missing recipe!

- Don't be afraid to experiment with different ingredients: This recipe is just a starting point. Feel free to add other ingredients that you think would taste good in your salsa, such as diced red onion, chopped cilantro, or a splash of lime juice.
- Make sure to chill your salsa before serving: This will help the flavors to meld and develop. You can chill your salsa for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
