Ingredients

1 1/2 cups water
1 12 oz bags fresh cranberries
1 teaspoon almond extract
24 packages splenda
1 1/2 cups finely chopped celery
2 - finely chopped granny smith apples
2 packages (3 oz) jello sugar free black cherry jello

How To Make low carb holiday crunchy cranberry jello salad

Step 1

Heat 1 1/2 cups water, Splenda, almond extract and cranberries in saucepan over medium heat with cover on pan until most of the cranberries burst open. Stir frequently. It will thicken as you go.

Step 2

While this is simmering, chop celery, apples and pecans (you can buy the pecans already chopped but it costs more).
Step 3

After the berries are ready, remove from heat and stir in the two packages of Black Cherry Jello. Return to heat and add in 3/4 cup water and package of Raspberry Jello. Let reach a boil then remove from heat.
Step 4

Pour into glass pan or I prefer one of those fancy glass bowls on a pedestal for better presentation and refrigerate until set. Can start in freezer if you are in a hurry, but regular setting time in the fridge is overnight. Serve and enjoy!
