Christmas Cranberry Salsa

Fresh cranberries are minced up with jalapeno into a healthy, fresh, and vibrant salsa.

Ingredients

12 oz fresh cranberries
¼ cup sliced green onions
2 jalapeƱos, minced
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves, minced
2 tablespoons finely grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons lemon juice
½ cup (equivalent) artificial Sweetner

Instructions
  • Rinse, drain, and pick over cranberries, (discarding all that are soft or bruised). 
  • Place cranberries in a food processor or blender; pulse until finely chopped but not mushy.
  • Place crushed cranberries in a bowl
  • Mix together with green onions, jalapeƱos, cilantro leaves, and ginger. 
  • Pour lemon juice and sweetener over and stir together.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate and allow flavors to develop. 
  • It will be a bit tart to begin with, but as it is allowed to sit it will develop even more flavor.
  • Can be served as a plain salsa, but is amazing served over cream cheese.
