Recipes Side Dish Grandma Freel's Cranberry Salad 4.5 (2) 2 Reviews 1 Photo This is a recipe my grandma made for a local JELL-O® contest. She won first place! It is a delicious salad like nothing I have ever seen. I grew up eating this cranberry salad every year at Thanksgiving. It reminds me of my grandma, who I loved so much!

Remove saucepan from heat. Stir gelatin into the cranberries mixture until dissolved completely; add celery, apple, and pecans and stir. Pour into a glass 13x9-inch dish. Refrigerate until set in the center, 10 to 12 hours. Cook's Notes: Put salad in a glass casserole dish. It will not set up correctly in a metal pan. I use gala apples, but any apple will do. Do not use off-brand gelatin mix; otherwise your dish won't turn out right.
