Need a Thanksgiving salad? I never really feel like green salad is a winter vegetable. However, this salad has a decidedly Thanksgiving feel to it-probably thanks to the cranberry citrus relish! I use this relish as a relish, a filling for chicken and just about anything else I can think of. One day I threw it in my salad & Huzzah! This recipe was born. I didn’t really put proportions on here. I just tear up enough lettuce for the number eating & add the other ingredients until it looks balanced. Give it try at your holiday table!
