Cranberry salad - A Grandmothers recipe Recipe

"My mother was given this by a co-worker it was her grandmothers recipe. It is now a family tradition For both Christmas and thanksgiving that I make this recipe it is asked about If I made something else. we eat in place of cranberry relish. Some people afterwards put on there sandwiches. I always have to make huge amount so people can take some home. Make 3 days in advance as flavors are best if you give it time to mingle. You can make with sugar free for those watching weight or diabetics. Buy Fresh cranberries and freeze to prevent splatters."
