Cranberry sauce is not something I normally eat at Thanksgiving. I'm not sure why because I do like cranberries. I think it has to do with seeing that gelatinous blob from a can every year and never having any desire to try it. I came across this recipe for cranberry salsa and decided to make it for an appetizer to our meal this year. I am so glad I did! It's sweet and sour, with just a little bit of heat from the jalapeno. I didn't want to overdo it on the heat, but next time I would keep some seeds/ribs on the pepper instead of removing all of them. You can serve this with crackers or tortilla chips.

Ingredients:
- 1 12 ounce package fresh cranberries
- 1 Jalapeno pepper
- 1/4 cup green onion chopped
- 1/4 cup cilantro chopped
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- dash salt
- optional (cream cheese)
Directions:
Chop the cranberries and jalapeno pepper in a mini chopper or food processor. Pulse until the cranberries are chopped, but still a little chunky. Chop up green onion and cilantro into small pieces. Add all ingredients and mix together. Refrigerate for at least a few hours to allow cranberries to soften a little and for flavors to blend.

I've found it works amazingly well as the condiment to spread on your leftover turkey sandwiches too.
