Instructions

  1. Rinse the cranberries and discard any that are mushy or bruised. Place cranberries in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped but not pureed. You want the cranberries to have some texture.
  2. In a medium bowl, stir together the cranberries, sugar, cilantro, jalapeño, green onions, lime zest, lime juice, and salt.
  3. Cover and chill for at least 30 minutes, I recommend overnight, so the flavors can meld together.
  4. Serve with tortilla chips or crackers. You can also spoon the salsa over cream cheese bricks, whipped feta, or a warm brie wheel. You can also spread cream cheese or goat cheese on crackers and top with the salsa for a simple appetizer or snack.

Notes

  • If your cranberries are super tart, you can add more sugar, but I think it is plenty sweet. If you prefer a completely mild salsa, you can use 1 jalapeño, but we like the salsa with 2 jalapeños. Taste and adjust to your liking.

  • The salsa is best if you let it chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before serving, but preferably overnight.
