How to prepare Amish Cranberry Salad?

Amish Cranberry Salad is a combination of cranberries, apples, pineapples, celery, and lemon jello topped with chopped walnuts and miniature marshmallows. Simply prepare ground and grated fruits and jello according to instructions and combine them for a simple Amish cranberry salad recipe.

While there are various takes on this recipe, we find this one to be the easiest in terms of preparation and time. Other recipes call for combining the fruits halfway through the gelling process, however, it works just fine to wait and connect after the jello is fully gelatinous.
