Spicy holiday mama's cranberry salsa!

Recipe Name: Leigh's Cranberry Salsa

Ingredients:
12 oz. bag of fresh cranberries
4 Tbls. fresh cilantro - Chopped
1/3 cup lime juice
½ tsp. salt
¼ tsp pepper
2 seeded and minced jalapeno peppers
2 Tbls. Green onions – chopped (tops only)
½ cup sugar

Directions:
Blanch the cranberries. This only takes a few minutes; you want to cook them just long enough for them to “pop” and split open, then drain in a colander. Put in a blender.
Add the following ingredients to the blender – lime juice, salt, pepper, sugar and blend.
Add blended ingredients to the cilantro, jalapeno peppers and onion. Stir and then chill. Best made a day early.
Serve with cream cheese and crackers.

Tips:
You can double this recipe and only blanch ½ of the cranberries
and chop the other half. It makes it have a different texture and
more colorful.
