(by Shirley McNevich)

1 - 16oz. can Ocean Spray whole berry cranberry sauce
1 - 20oz. can Dole crushed pineapple (drained but SAVE the juice)
1 - 6oz. box raspberry Jell-O
1 red delicious apple (peeled, cored and chopped)
2/3 cup chopped walnuts
Cool Whip

In a measuring cup add pineapple juice--add enough water to the pineapple juice to make 3 cups total of the juice/water mixture--stir with a spoon. Pour the juice/water mixture into a saucepan over medium heat--stir and bring to a boil. Remove saucepan from heat--add Jell-O powder to the hot juice mixture, then stir until Jell-O is dissolved. Add the cranberry sauce to the Jell-O mixture--stir. Pour the mixture from the saucepan into a large bowl--let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate it until the Jell-O starts to gel (about 90 minutes). Remove Jell-O mixture from the refrigerator--add chopped apples, drained crushed pineapple and chopped walnuts--stir until mixed. Refrigerate overnight. Top with Cool Whip before serving.
