Cranberry Salad Recipe
When you think of a cranberry salad recipe, thoughts of canned, jellied cranberry salad come to mind. These salads are 99% pure sugar, is that what you want to serve your family? | Think fresh, think tossed greens enhanced with crisp apples an da wonderful FRESH cranberry salad dressing drizzled over the salad.
Yes, this green salad recipe calls for a bit of sugar, and some honey, but you can adjust how much or how little you actually use without any adverse effects. I just happen to have a sweet tooth, so I do use the recipe as is.

Did you notice that there is under 25 mg of odium in this fresh tossed salad? Have you noticed how much sodium is in one small can of jellied cranberries? Feel healthy, eat fresh.
