I have made this recipe since I got married in 1962. I found it in a 1954 copyright First Edition Westinghouse Cookbook. My cookbook doesn't have covers anymore as I have used it so much! This salad is great for the holidays but I sometimes make it on other occasions when I can get fresh cranberries. I hope you like it as much as I do. The preparation time does not include making the salad dressing. It is a separate recipe and takes only a few minutes to prepare and cook until it thickens, however so easy to make. Try it, I think you will love it as everyone does I have made it for
