Cranberry tang meets kick up your heels salsa ingredients for great flavor combinations in this cranberry salsa dip. Make a day ahead so that the ingredients have time meld. Serve over cream cheese for an amazing tongue-tingling event.
Wash and pick through fresh cranberries. Discard any soft or wrinkled cranberries.
Put cranberries, sugar, green onions, jalapeno, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in a food processor. Pulse until ingredients are a medium coarse consistency.
Put in a bowl, cover and let season for at least 4 hours or overnight in the refrigerator. This is a very important step! There is quite a different taste between the initial product and the one that develops over as the ingredients season.
Spread softened cream cheese on a serving plate. (I divided the cream cheese between two plates.) Spread cilantro salsa over the cream cheese. Serve at room temperature.

I have a recipe very simaliar to this, except I add about a 1/2 of a serrano pepper along with the Jalapeno for a differnent dept of heat and no green onions. Also I use splenda instead of sugar (I’m a diabetic) and you really can’t tell the difference. Never thought of the cream cheese idea though that’s a good one, I bet it is good, I’ll give it a try this week.
