CRANBERRY SALAD

Category: Dessert Salads

1 (12 oz) pkg fresh or frozen cranberries, coarsely chopped
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, with juice
2 cups white sugar
1 (12 oz) container whipped topping
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups miniature marshmallows

In a large bowl, stir together the cranberries, pineapple (with juice) and sugar. Let stand for about an hour, to let sugar dissolve, and then pour the mixture into a strainer over a bowl. Let drain, covered, in the refrigerator for at least two hours, or overnight. (Note: The drippings make a wonderful cranberry punch, when mixed with lemon-lime soda!)

In a large bowl, mix together the cranberry mixture, walnuts and marshmallows. Fold in the whipped cream and store in refrigerator until serving. Serves 8
