The first recipe we've selected is one that will be perfect for your Thanksgiving meal: Nora Roberts' Fresh Cranberry Salad, on page 32 of the cookbook. It's very simple to make and is delicious. The color of the salad will be a nice addition to your turkey and dressing, and the different fruits/nuts and celery combine well.
