"CRANCRACK" CRANBERRY SALAD
This was my mothers recipe, and named by my son because it is so addictive. By replacing the Jell-O® with sugar-free Jello-O®, using no-sugar-added pineapple, and your choice of sugar substitute, this turns into a reduced-carb recipe. If you don't have a grinder, use a blender and water to grind the cranberries, then drain.

Tips:
- Use fresh cranberries. Fresh cranberries have a tart and tangy flavor that is perfect for this salad. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Chop the celery and walnuts finely. This will help them to distribute evenly throughout the salad and make it easier to eat.
- Use a light-tasting olive oil. This will help to keep the salad from becoming too heavy or greasy.
- Add a little bit of orange zest. This will help to brighten up the flavor of the salad.
- Serve the salad chilled. This will help to keep it refreshing and flavorful.
Conclusion:
This sugar-free cranberry salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy the holiday season. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So give it a try and see for yourself how delicious it is!
