How to Make Cranberry Chunk Salad
- In a large bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of your favorite salad dressing (such as French or mayonnaise), 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt until completely smooth and creamy.
- Gently stir in 1 cup of drained crushed pineapple, 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts, and 2 ripe bananas, mashed.
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
- Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of fresh or frozen cranberry chunks.
- Line the sides and bottom of a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan with two layers of wax paper, ensuring it overhangs the edges for easy removal.
- Pour the cranberry mixture into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Freeze for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until firm.
