This Jell-O-infused cranberry relish is the perfect addition to your holiday dressing. I always prepare it a few days ahead of the major meal to ensure that the flavor is truly concentrated.

I used this recipe as a template. I used all the oranges, apples, and fresh (rather than frozen) cranberries. We are diabetic, so I didn’t use Jello or sugar – rather I used Stevia to sweeten it a bit. I start with 1/4 of Stevia, and then add more to taste (it depends what kind of apples used). Sometimes I add the nuts – sometimes not, to suit whoever is coming to dinner. WE LOVE THIS! AND it feels healthier without the additional sugars. YUM!
Was a big hit @ my Family Thanksgiving party!! I highly recommend this over the old canned stuff.
added pineapple
Loved it. Was messy for me to make, chopped cranberries in a blender! I also decreased the sugar.The end results were absolutely delish. Have made it 4 times over the holidays. My go to from now on.
Excellent taste! I have made this recipe 3 times this holiday season. It is a perfect cranberry dish!
The 5 stars rating is because DH and eldest daughter loved it with raspberry Jello. Just as good the 2nd time with cherry Jello, but will do it raspberry next time. Cut down the sugar to 2/3 cup and it was still too sweet with the jello. Will keep tweaking but its going to be a regular side dish for our special occasion meals.
I made this for our church women’s Thanksgiving dinner and it was a big hit. Even the young children loved it. I never made a cranberry relish with so much fruit in it, but that is what makes it so good. I also used raspberry jello. Fabulous recipe!!!!!!!
I used orange juice instead of the oranges and for the jello i used one small box of strawberry jello and one of the raspberry jello…it turned out awesome! My Grandmother makes this recipe every Christmas…love it!!!
Really great! I used Raspberry Jello instead of Strawberry. I like the flavor better. This recipe is great with chopped pecans too!
This is very similar to a receipe I have used for years. It is very good, but I use fresh cranberries in mine.
