Pam's Pineapple Cranberry Salsa image

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. Works and tastes great! -Pam Leni, Rockford, Illinois

I didn't have any jalapenos, so I used a serrano pepper instead. It was still really good, but a little spicy.

This salsa is a little too sweet for my taste. I'll add less sugar next time.

I'm allergic to pineapple, so I substituted mango. It was still really good.

I'm not usually a fan of salsa, but this one is really good. The sweetness of the pineapple and cranberries balances out the heat of the jalapeno.

This salsa is a great way to use up leftover pineapple and cranberries. It's also really easy to make.
