Variation: Omit strawberries and walnuts. Add the zest of 1 orange. Tip: Slightly heat the canned cranberry sauce to loosen its gelatin before stirring in the pineapple, etc. I usually like to make fresh cranberry relish from scratch with apples, oranges, and cranberries in a food processor, with a can of crushed pineapple stirred in, and some sugar. So delicious. But yesterday, I was very short on time, so I threw together 2 cans of whole berry cranberry sauce and 1 can of crushed pineapple, then added a little orange zest. I was surprised how delicious it tasted, and so much easier than the fresh relish.

My mother in law makes something similar to this...very tasty but I can't really eat it much because I'm diabetic. FYI, this probably shouldn't be in the diabetic section, wayyyy too many carbs for a diabetic like me.

This is without a doubt the best relish/desert I have ever prepared. I have shared it with many in the campground and all wanted the recipe. Better than cake, cookies or pie and so easy to prepare. I add extra strawberries without draining as we like the juice. Also can use frozen strawberries in the bag, just cut them in half. Cuts down on the calories. Sharon

Made this for Thanksgiving. So simple and good. Was a hit with everyone even my husband who doesn't care for cranberries. My teenage nephew called it "the bomb" and wanted what was left over to take home (which wasn't much) Thanks for sharing your recipe!

I love cranberry relish; but it is typically too tart for the kids. I tried this recipe for Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. All the kids had seconds and all the adults asked for the recipe.

This is an excellent recipe and very easy. I served it to a group of 15 people and everyone raved about it and asked for the recipe. It's a keeper!

My sons, who are two and four, mopped this up! It's wonderful. I'm going to make it for Thanksgiving.

Flavorful and delicious. A great twist to the plain old jellied cranberry sauce! It is key to drain the pineapple, and I added a few extra walnuts because I liked the crunch. This went over well at Christmas!
