Sylvia’s Cranberry Salad

Recipe from Tenito

When I make this, I have sweet dreams about my mom, Sylvia Dean Moore. It truly is one of my cherished recipes! This salad freezes beautifully and can easily be doubled, tripled, or even quadrupled, making it perfect for sharing with friends and family!

Ingredients

  • 1 6oz. box Orange Jello, prepared according to package directions
  • 1 lb. fresh cranberries, mashed
  • 2 1/2 cups sugar
  • 2 oranges, mashed
  • 1 cup pecans
  • 1/2 cup orange zest

Here’s how to make it!

Let the jello chill until it’s just set; firm enough to hold its shape but still soft enough to stir. Add the remaining ingredients, mix until everything is well combined, then chill until firm.
