Vidalia Onion-Cranberry Relish image

I made this the first time when I hosted Thanksgiving at my home for my family (deviating from the "ordinary" cranberry sauce.) Since then I've been asked to make this relish for Christmas, Easter, and any other holiday that involves a Turkey. Yummy, yummy. It is easy to make and one of those great recipes that you can make well in advance to take some stress from the day.

I'm not usually a fan of onion relish, but this one is really good. The cranberries add a nice sweetness and the onions are not too overpowering.

I used red onions instead of Vidalia onions and it still turned out great. I also added a bit of chopped jalapeño for a little extra kick.
