Yummy Fresh Cranberry Salsa

Yield: 8 Servings (about 4 cups of salsa)

Prep Time: 15

Total Time: 15

Ingredients

1 (12-ounce) package (340 g) fresh cranberries
1 granny smith apple, peeled, cored and chopped
¼ medium red onion, peeled and roughly chopped
½ large red pepper, roughly chopped
¾ cup (159 g) granulated sugar
⅓ cup (75 g) no-sugar added applesauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
¼ cup fresh cilantro
1 jalapeno, seeded and diced (use the seeds if you want more heat)
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients in a food processor or blender and pulse until combined (and it is the texture you want).
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to give the flavors a chance to meld. It can be made and refrigerated for up to a week or longer.
Serve with tortilla chips.

Notes

Chopping: if your blender or food processor is on the small side and doesn't chop up large batches of ingredients very well, consider chopping the ingredients separately or in batches and then combining in a bowl.
