Servings:12 servings
Ingredients
- 1 12-ounce package fresh or frozen and thawed cranberries, finely chopped
- 1 cup granulated sugar

- juice of ½ lime
- ½ cup roughly chopped walnuts

Instructions
- Combine chopped cranberries, sugar, pineapple (including juice), lime juice, and walnuts in a bowl and stir. Cover and chill for at least one hour. (or up to overnight)

Notes
Easy make ahead method: My favorite method of preparation is to complete step one, then allow to chill overnight, then complete step 2 the next morning and allow to chill until the afternoon or evening when the dish will be served.
