CRANBERRY SAUCE SALSA
Don't toss that little bit of cranberry sauce leftover from Thanksgiving dinner. This recipe, which we developed for a special kids' edition of The New York Times, calls for making it into a savory-sweet salsa that everyone will love. Just add some chopped fresh tomatoes, onion, garlic, cilantro and jalapeño to prepared whole cranberry sauce (not the jellied stuff). Stir in some lime zest and juice, and a sprinkling of chile powder, cumin and cayenne. Serve with enchilada pie or tortilla chips, and consider stocking canned cranberry sauce in your cabinet all year long.

PINEAPPLE SALSA
This is a simple salsa with a bright acidity, one that you could temper with some diced mango if you like. I've called for a single jalapeño. You could use two if you like. Just keep all the flavors in balance - sweet, salty, sour and fiery. It's terrific on pork and with grilled fish, on tacos or as an accompaniment to breakfast eggs.

PAM'S PINEAPPLE CRANBERRY SALSA
Apples and cranberries give this salsa a holiday flavor, while garlic and jalapenos give it just the kick salsa needs. You can serve it up as a dip with chips, like a regular salsa, or as a complement to meat dishes. Sometimes I substitute half the sugar with Splenda to lessen the calories.
