CRANBERRY SALAD (A.K.A. THANKSGIVING PINK STUFF)



Cranberry Salad (A.k.a. Thanksgiving Pink Stuff) image

My mother got this recipe from a dear family friend in the 1950's. No matter who in our family is making Thanksgiving dinner, you can bet this dish will be served. Note: the times indicated do not include refrigeration time. Cranberries from Wisconsin make this a Midwest U.S. regional recipe. (Also, I first enjoyed it in Missour - another fine Midwestern state).
