I made this for Easter dinner. This is very good. My MIL and my new DIL both really liked it. It is especially tasty with Turkey or Ham.

This is a great recipe, but much work with the grinding, etc. It turns out I doubled the recipe and no one at it besides me. Note to self (and others): Make sure you have Cranberry lovers on hand before making!

I've been looking for a delicious cranberry salad recipe and I am so glad I found this one!! This is the best one I've made. I made it exactly as directed except I left out the celery and nuts & added an apple. It was soo good! I made it for a family gathering over the Holidays and it was a hit! I had a few requests for the recipe. My sis-in-law, who doesn't even like cranberries, said it was yummy and wanted the recipe! Thank you for sharing:)

I loved this recipe and will make it for future Thanksgiving feasts. This is how I adjusted it: I used 2 clementines in place of the orange (that was all I had). I used 3/4 of a fuji apple in place of the celery and walnuts. I used 3/4 c. sugar and cranberry gelatin (I am not sure you would need any extra sugar at all. I will experiment). I shared some of this with a bachelor friend who REALLY liked it. My children weren't crazy about it. Now I get to eat it ALL. Yum.

This is a really old recipe that my family has enjoyed probably since the advent of jello. Now that cranberry jello is available, I use that instead. The ground orange with peel is what sets this apart from so many other recipes. Cannot say enough good things about this recipe, and am glad that it is online for others to enjoy!

This is a family classic, on the holiday table for as long as I can remember. I recently added a texture tweak that has my guests raving: use 1 cup fresh cranberries as listed, but sub in 1 cup of DRIED cranberries. Amazing, chewy surprise!

This was just the recipe I was looking for that my mom used to make. I left out the nuts and celery (kids) and added an apple to grind up in the food processor with cranberries and the orange. This is so easy to whip up as a side dish adn well recieved by my Christmas Eve guests. Thanks for a winner!

If you're watching carbs, leave out the sugar and use sugar-free raspberry jello. A dollop of IMO on top finishes it off nicely.

Awesome! I got lots of compliments at Thanksgiving by people starting with, "I don't normally like cranberry salad but this is really good, could you give me the recipe?" I used sugar free raspberry jello and also 3/4 c of sugar instead to lighten it. Also only used 1 cup of hot water.

Great recipe! I left out the celery and added a small peeled apple instead. I find that it really helps if you use some of the excess pinapple juice in the blender with the cranberries first. I don't blend the oranges or apples. I agree with only using 1 cup of water, too. (you can also use strawberry gelatin mix) Everyone in my family LOVES this cranberry salad! Yummy!!!

I made this for Christmas dinner, I was a little nervous of what the kids might think but they LOVED it, alongwith all the adults. I mixed the jello with the water last so it wouldn't sit. I also used cranberry raspberry jello. Very, very good!! =}

Yummy! My whole family loved it. It is made easier with the use of mandarin oranges.

I've been making this salad for several years and it's always well received. I reduced the hot water to 1 cup, dissolve the jello and add 3/4 cup of the drained pineapple juice. I also add 1 tsp. lemon juice. The smaller amount of liquid makes the salad firmer as I usually pour it into a jello mold.

Thanks for the easy recipe. I didn't drain the pineapple as much as I probably should have. I'd reduce the hot water to 1 3/4 cup to make the jello a bit firmer. The family liked it -- it's a keeper and will make it again.
