I got this recipe from my sister’s mother-in-law and it has quickly become a staple on our Thanksgiving table.

Why is it things always taste better when someone else makes them?  The first time I tried to make this – well let’s just say it tasted alright but wasn’t pretty to look at!  I was so excited too, I had made my first Jello salad!  Yep you read that right this is the first Jello salad I ever made – and to be honest the only one.  I’m a little bit of a Jello purist, I am normally not a fan of things floating around in my Jello!

But this changed my mind!  Remember to let your Jello set up a bit before adding the other ingredients or the cranberries sink to the bottom and the nuts float to the top, and well it’s just not the same!
