Cranberry Salsa
What you need:
4 green onions
1 small white onion
2 jalapenos
6 serrano peppers
2 (14 ounce) cans whole cranberry sauce
2 limes, juiced
2 (8 ounce) containers vegan cream cheese
What you do:
1. In food processor, chop up onions and peppers. Move this mixture to a large bowl.
2. Add the cranberry sauce and stir it all up. Once everything is combined really well, squeeze the limes over it and stir again.
3. Refrigerate this for at least 1 hour before serving. It's much tastier cold.
4. Serve with vegan cream cheese and vegan crackers.
I like to spread the cream cheese onto my cracker then top it with salsa. Some people like to dump the salsa over the cream cheese on the plate.

SO HOW'D IT GO?
A friend brought this to my house for a party and I was floured. We ate it poured over two containers of vegan cream cheese on crackers! YUM!!
oh my goodness. this is the best salsa i've ever made! i love the tart, non-salty bite that this has. i used homemade cranberry sauce and added some orange juice/zest to it. yum yum yum!
This was great! I couldn't find serranos and substituted a milder pepper. I hope I can find serranos the next time. I'm with Duckalucky - I'm making it for all my holiday gatherings this year!!
This was great! I too used the chipotle peppers in adobe sauce! I will make this again and again!
Very tasty!! I made this and served it at Thanksgiving dinner, where it was well-received. I halved the recipe and poured it over some Tofutti vegan cream cheese. I left out one of the serranos and removed the seeds from all the peppers, thinking this might be too hot, but next time I'll add more peppers. It wasn't quite spicy enough for me; I like my food pretty spicy, though. I'll definitely be making this again.
Everyone loved this recipe!!! I bought the cream cheese and opted not to use it. Everyone raved about it and I was one of two vegans at the party. The other 25 are omnis. I also deseeded the peppers and it was almost too hot. If you can't handle hot foods cut down on the peppers and definately deseed.
OK! wow!
i made this recipe ( well.... half of it, since every one is telling to do so... ;) )
with home-made cranberry sauce, and it was delicious. It's not even thanksgiving in Canada and i think I'll make some again. I added some orange zest ( according to my cranberry sauce recipe) and it was great.
OK, I think I want to add this recipe for Thanksgiving. How are most of you serving this one? Are you pouring it over some vegan cream cheese or having it by itself? Do you prefer crackers or tortilla chips? Are there any other suggestions besides maybe reducing the onion? Thanks!
Wow, this salsa rocks my socks. I threw in some lightly cooked whole cranberries, too, to add to the texture. I also sautéed the peppers to mellow out their heat, as I'm not the world's biggest fan of spicy.
DELICIOUS! Best recipe I've tried from vegweb!
Somehow I didn't get serrano peppers when shopping so I subbed with half of a 7oz. can of chipotles in adobo. This gave it a very smokey taste (which I loved) vs. what I'm sure is a more crisp and fresh taste with the serranos.
Make no mistake this is spicy!! To make it less spicy (carefully) de-seed the peppers before chopping.
I halfed the recipe and in my opinion still had enough for a party of people (4 cups, at least... there's more that's not pictured!)
I used my vitamix to chop the onion and peppers, if you do, use a VERY low speed like 1 or it goes to mush (still good though!)
Delicious and very modern Thanksgiving or even non-Thanksgiving recipe.
I like it with Wheat Thins :)
BTW... If you can't get your hands on cranberry sauce... (europe:)) you may be able to try this recipe with a whole fruit raspberry jam or preserves.
