Cranberry Salsa

2 cups fresh cranberries
1 1/2 cups coarsely chopped orange sections (about 3 oranges)
1/3 cup chopped red onion
1/3 cup fresh orange juice
3 T sugar
2 T chopped fresh cilantro
1/4 t salt
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped (optional)

Place cranberries in a food processor; pulse 2 to 3 times or until coarsely chopped.
Combine cranberries, orange sections, and remaining ingredients in a large bowl, tossing gently to combine. Cover and chill.

I recommend you serve this in a glass bowl -- it really is beautiful. I would post a picture, but it never lasts long enough to photograph.

Yield: 3 cups (we have three hungry boys around here, so I triple it.)
