Cranberry salsa. Made in minutes in a food processor, this sweet-tangy cranberry salsa gets its heat from a jalapeno pepper combined with chopped cilantro, green onions, lime juice, and sugar.

My fresh cranberry salsa recipe requires no cooking and combines loads of fresh cranberries with spicy jalapeno peppers and a few other ingredients for a quick and easy holiday salsa. Cooler weather brings on the cranberries, so that means all sorts of cranberry recipes, from cranberry. I find that there are two types of Thanksgiving meal eaters out there. There are those that stay away from appetizers - saving themselves for the main meal, and those who have already thrown in the towel for the day and are looking to prime the pump.

Use a food processor, hand chopper or even a powerful blender to quickly throw this delicious appetizer together. The recipe calls for a seeded Jalapeno but I have substituted half of a ploblano pepper with great success. If you want to add a little heat, leave a few seeds in. The cranberry salsa worked out well with the thawed cranberries and this recipe is delicious. It is nice to have a salsa variation and something new to do with cranberries.
