Ingredients
  

Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce (or 16 ounce can Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce)

  • 3 cups cranberries fresh or frozen
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar

Remaining Ingredients:

  • ½ red onion chopped, or 3-4 green onions
  • 2-3 Tablespoons fresh cilantro chopped
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 2 jalapeno peppers seeds and stem removed, chopped (or ¼ cup chopped canned jalpenos)
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice

Instructions
 

Prepare Cranberry Sauce (if not using canned):

  • Combine water and sugar in a medium saucepan. Heat and stir until dissolved and bring to a boil.
  • Add cranberries and return to a boil. Cook 10 minutes without stirring (stirring causes molten sugar to crystalize). Allow to cool (so you don’t wilt the cilantro).

Prepare Cranberry Salsa:

  • Spoon canned or homemade whole cranberry sauce into a bowl. Mix in onion, jalapeno, cumin cilantro and lime juice.
  • Cover then refrigerate until needed. Cranberry salsa is best after waiting a couple hours for flavors to blend.
