Do you have extra or frozen cranberries on hand? Have you noticed that since the holidays are past, the price of organic cranberries has plummeted? This recipe takes those now-moderately priced brilliant red powerhouses and with your blender or food processor, makes them into a raw, deliciously tart treat your family will love alongside their favorite dinner. Or, eat this salad like Bill and I do - as a mid-afternoon snack to really lift our energy! This recipe comes from my Mom's original recipes, and I've been making it for years. It makes a family-sized amount, but you can always cut it in half for a smaller amount. Either way you're gonna' love this healthy quick recipe! We hope you like this raw salad as much as we do...
