This is my mother's recipe. I think she may have been inspired by one of my aunts, but she has made it her own over the years. It just isn't the holidays without this around the house. We use it to go along with our turkey or sometimes we eat it all by itself. The sweet-tart flavor really hits the spot when the weather starts getting cold.
Holiday Cranberry Relish
1 lbs frozen fresh cranberries
1 small sweet red apple, cored
1 small tart green apple, cored
2 small navel oranges (or 1 large navel orange, include half of the orange peel)
2 c crushed pineapple
1 c sugar
1 c orange juice
1 c orange juice
1 small box Jell-O (Cherry, Black Cherry, Rasberry, whatever floats your boat)
1 c craisins (optional - I have started adding these lately)

Using a food processor, coarsely grind cranberries, apples, oranges, craisins and pineapple. Add sugar, orange juice and jello, stir well. Refrigerate overnight before serving.

Ok, momma got confused on her recipe because she made a double batch. The changes have been made above. We originally had 2 lbs of cranberries and a total of 4 apples. It is correct now at 1 lb of cranberries and 1 green apple and 1 red apple. Sorry for the confusion.
