Preparation

Step 1

Place cranberries, jalapeños, green onions, and cilantro in a food processor. Blend until fine. Transfer mixture to a bowl and stir in the lime juice, salt, and sugar to taste. Allow to macerate, chill, and marry the flavors in the fridge for 2 hours or more.
To serve: spread cream cheese evenly onto two plates. Divide the salsa on top of both plates of cream cheese. Serve with crackers (Wheat Thins and Ritz Crackers are our favorite.)
