Orange Cranberry Salad

Saturday, June 28th, 2008

2 cups Cranberries
2 cups Sugar
2 Oranges
Zest of 1 Orange
2 packages Lemon Jell-o  (with sugar)
3 cups Water
1 Cup Diced Celery
1 Cup chopped walnuts

Rough chop the cranberries and orange sections, mix with sugar, and orange zest and let sit for 1 hour.  Make the Jell-o with only the three cups of water (forget what the package says).  Put it in the fridge until it starts to set.  Then mix in the the cranberry mixture with all the juice, celery and walnuts.  Stir and chill for several more hours.  If your oranges are especially juicy you should cut the water back to 2.5 cups.
