Cherry Salad is a delicious holiday salad. If your family is not crazy about cranberry relish, sauce, or salad, this is a perfect substitute. And it perfectly compliments ham for your Christmas or Easter dinner.

Many years ago, this recipe was shared with me by neighbor Helen Askew.
About how many servings would you say this is good for? Can't wait to try it...answer when you are up to it..no rush
ReplyDeleteThis is just a guess, because it depends on how many other sides are served with the meal, but I would say around 10. Enjoy! :)
Deletesuper...thanks...was hoping for 7 so that's perfect!
ReplyDeleteWith the pie filling and other ingredients, it is a dense jello salad, so I think you will be good to go. :)
