SOUDER FAMILY CRANBERRY JELLO SALAD



Souder Family Cranberry Jello Salad image

Its not Thanksgiving for me unless I have cranberry jello salad. This recipe comes from my mother's side of the family and has been a tradition at Souder Thanksgiving meals for as long as I have been alive. Super easy and delicious! Cooling and chilling take several hours, so prepare at least a day before you plan on serving. I always double the recipe; if you do this, split between at least two containers before chilling or it will take forever to set. (Its still good if it doesn't set!)

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries: Fresh cranberries have a brighter flavor and a firmer texture than frozen cranberries.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries: Overcooked cranberries will become mushy and lose their tartness.
  • Use a good quality gelatin: A good quality gelatin will help the salad set properly and give it a smooth, creamy texture.
  • Chill the salad for at least 4 hours before serving: This will give the salad time to set properly and develop its full flavor.
  • Serve the salad with a dollop of whipped cream or ice cream: This will add a touch of sweetness and richness to the salad.

Conclusion:

Souder Family Cranberry Jello Salad is a classic holiday side dish that is always a hit. It is easy to make and can be made ahead of time, making it a great option for busy hosts. The salad is also a good source of vitamin C and antioxidants, making it a healthy choice as well.
