AUTUMN SALAD WITH CREAMY CRANBERRY DRESSING



Autumn Salad With Creamy Cranberry Dressing image

I came across this recipe in a local grocery store flyer a few years ago and it has easily become the most requested recipe by my friends and family. Its quick to make without a lot of preparation and it can be fun to change up the salad ingredients. I love it the way it is without any altering but I took it to our family Christmas dinner this year and instead of adding pears I used fresh mandarines and accidentally forgot the cheese - it was still a huge hit and not one bite left behind. I do prefer the flavour and the consistency of the dressing when refrigerated at least 5 hours as it will thicken up and allow the flavours to blend. I have also added one tbsp of lemon juice to regular milk instead of using buttermilk. Enjoy.

CRANBERRY CREAM SALAD



Cranberry Cream Salad image

So easy, so pretty, and so very tasty. This salad/dessert is very light with a bit of a tang. Very refreshing. Don't save it just for Christmas or Thanksgiving. It's wonderful on a hot summer day. Because of the colour, it fits very well into 'pink' themed occasions like girls birthday parties, Mother's Day, or bridal and baby showers. Unlike others posted, this version has less added sugar and marshmallows. The recipe makes a large amount, but can easily be cut in half for smaller gatherings. Cooking time listed is standing time.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 2h30m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups cranberries (not dried)
1 cup sugar
2 cups whipping cream
3/4 cup miniature marshmallow (do not use the coloured variety)
1 cup crushed pineapple, drained

Steps:

  • Chop cranberries in a food processor or blender. Don't cut them too finely as you'll want to have larger chucks in there too. If using frozen berries, chop while still frozen.
  • Combine cranberries and sugar. Let stand for 2 hours.
  • In a large bowl, whip cream until stiff.
  • Fold in the marshmallows and pineapple.
  • Give the cranberries and sugar a stir, then gently fold it into the whipped cream mixture. Over mixing will turn the entire mixture pink. While it won't change the taste, or make it any less attractive, try to have a few 'ribbons' of cranberry throughout the bowl.
  • Spoon into a large glass serving bowl or individual parfait glasses. Chill until ready to serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries. Just thaw them before using.
  • Don't overcook the cranberries. They should be cooked until they are just soft, but not mushy.
  • Let the salad cool completely before serving. This will help the flavors to meld together.
  • Serve the salad with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Conclusion:

Creamy cranberry salad is a delicious and refreshing side dish that is perfect for any holiday gathering. It is easy to make and can be prepared ahead of time. The combination of tart cranberries, sweet pineapple, and creamy dressing is sure to please everyone at your table.
