I originally found this recipe for cranberry Jell-O salad with mandarin oranges in an old, old email, so thought I'd post it here now.
Ingredients
- cranberries: 2 cups (fresh)
- mandarin oranges: 1 can (15 ounce can, chopped)
- pecans: 1 cup
- pineapple: 1 can (15 ounce can, drained, crushed)
- cranberry-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®): 2 packages (3 ounce packages)
- white sugar: 0.75 cup
- boiling water: 1 cup
- water: 1 cup (cold)

Mix pineapple, gelatin, and sugar in a separate bowl. Add boiling water and cold water and stir together until gelatin and sugar have dissolved.

Pour gelatin mixture into cranberry mixture and stir. Pour into a gelatin mold and refrigerate, 8 hours or overnight, before serving.
