Ditte's Cranberry salad

• 3 cups fresh cranberries (12 oz pkg.)
• 1 to 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1 cup red seedless grapes
• 1 cup tidbit size pineapple
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
• 1/2 cup heavy cream, whipped

1: wash cranberries and grind w/ medium blade in food processor. You want small chunks, not mush. I’ve used a salsa maker and that works well. Place cranberries in a colander and sprinkle sugar on them and mix in. Let sit overnight or for a few hours in the colander that’s over a bowl to let the juices drain out.

2: next day, cut grapes in half. Add grapes, pineapple pieces and buts to well drained cranberry mixtures. Fold in whipped cream. Place in a lettuce filled bowl for serving.
