FRESH CRANBERRY APPLE SALSA
Last year a friend asked me for a cranberry salsa recipe. Since I had never heard of it but liked the sound of it, I searched the net. My foodie friend Diane had one posted and I used several of her ingredients and I used a combo of several different recipes. I liked the idea of apple in it and the fresh ginger in Diane's recipe...

Steps:
- 1. Wash and prepare all produce. Dry off as much moisture as possible. In food processor bowl pulse cranberries, apple, bell peppers, red onion, and jalapeno to desired consistency. I like mine pretty small. Finely dice green onions and cilantro and grate ginger by hand to retain it's structure.
- 2. Mix all together in large bowl..adding remaining ingredients. Let marry, covered in fridge for a few hours. Serve over a block of creamed cheese with plain tortilla chips. I like to make apps with Tostito's Scoops, creamed cheese, and salsa on top. Yummm!
- 3. I have not made cranberry sauce since I started making this salsa. It's more to my family's liking. Try it on a turkey sandwich instead of cranberry sauce. I think you will love it as much as I do.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, firm cranberries for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have a food processor, you can chop the cranberries and other ingredients by hand.
- Be careful not to over-process the salsa, or it will become too mushy.
- Taste the salsa and adjust the seasonings to your liking.
- Serve the salsa immediately or chill it for later use.
