My Aunt Betty's Cranberry Jello Salad recipe is delicious! You can enjoy this for the holidays, or anytime of year. She usually makes this with sugar free Jello, but you could use sugar free or regular. Just use a small box for this particular recipe and just double the other ingredients if you use a larger box of Jello.

INGREDIENTS

1 can whole cranberry sauce
1 small box strawberry or cherry Jell-O (regular or sugar free)
1 cup hot water
1/3 cup finely chopped celery
1/4 cup toasted chopped pecans
Orange zest (optional)

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Boil one cup of water then remove water from heat and add Jell-O packet to mix until it's dissolved.
2. Add in can of whole cranberries, chopped celery and pecans, and if desired, some orange zest.
3. Refrigerate until set - at least a few hours, though I usually refrigerate this over night.
4. Enjoy!
