A blend of whole berry cranberry sauce, apple pie filling, and sliced pears. Perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas. Goes great with ham, turkey or chicken. Yum! Simple but delicious -- you'll get many compliments. Just don't tell anyone how easy it was! This makes a lot. You can halve it, but will end up with 1/2 a can of apple pie filling. (Although, it probably wouldn't hurt to put in the entire can.)
