Frozen Cranberry Salad

The recipe for Frozen Cranberry Salad is a great addition to your holiday menu. It is a great alternative to plain cranberry sauce.


1 8 oz brick of cream cheese
1/4 cup  Mayo or Miracle Whip
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 20oz can of crushed pineapple drained
1 cup diced bananas
1 8oz tub of cool whip
1 can whole cranberries

In a bowl blend together Cream Cheese, Mayo, Lemon Juice and Salt. Blend until creamy. Mix in Pineapple, banana,. Fold in the cool whip. Once all that is mixed together add the can of cranberries. Stir until blended. Spray loaf pan or 8x8 pan with nonstick spray. Pour into pan. Place in freezer. Remove about 15 min before serving. Place in warm water to loosen the sides.Slice and serve.

I hope you enjoy this addition to your holiday table. The recipe was given to me by my mother in law when I prepared my first Thanksgivings meal in  1997. It has graced out Thanksgiving and Christmas tables every year since.
