Health and fertility benefits of Cranberry Salad
Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries. Pineapples are loaded with vitamins and minerals including vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, phosphorus, and potassium.
Ingredients
1/2 cup sugar
6 oz dried cranberries, rinsed
1 cup broken pecans
1 (3 oz) package black cherry gelatin
1 (4 oz) can crushed pineapple
sour cream, or whipped cream, for garnish
fresh parsley, for garnish
1/2 cup water
Instructions
Drain pineapple and reserve juice. Add juice to 1/2 cup hot water and heat to boiling. Soften gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water. Dissolve softened gelatin in hot water-juice mixture. Let cool until it starts to set; don't let the gelatin harden.
Put cranberries through a grinder. Add ground berries, pineapple, nuts and sugar to cooled gelatin mixture. Mix well. Pour into a bowl or mold.
Refrigerate until completely set. Place mold in a warm water bath and run a knife around the edges to loosen. Invert onto a serving plate, garnish with parsley and a dollop of sour cream or whipped cream.
