Vidalia Onion-Cranberry Relish Recipe #268725
I made this the first time when I hosted Thanksgiving at my home for my family (deviating from the "ordinary" cranberry sauce.) Since then I've been asked to make this relish for Christmas, Easter, and any other holiday that involves a Turkey. Yummy, yummy. It is easy to make and one of those great recipes that you can make well in advance to take some stress from the day.

SERVES 12 , 1/4 cup servings
