I prepared this in the morning to serve at a party that evening. It makes for a beautiful presentation. I had not read all of the reviews - my mistake - and I used too much horseradish. The adults thought it was "pretty good" but the kids were not fans of it. When we took it out for leftovers two days later, the flavors had melded and it tasted much better. I will make this again, but I will treat as a make-ahead dish... and I will go lighter on the horseradish. Thanks for an interesting recipe!

I have made this twice now and the first time I thought it had WAY too much horseradish. I wasn't sure what kind of horseradish to get so I got the fresh kind in the jar, and apparently it has a very strong taste! The second time I made it, I used less than one tablespoon (maybe closer to one teaspoon) and it turned out much better. The sauce is more than enough for one block of cheese too, I ended up thowing out what I didn't use. Thanks for the recipe, can't wait until my family tries it this weekend for my early Christmas dinner!

This is a gourgeous dip! I served this at a Christmas family reunion. I used green onion to make it more festive, and even put a few green onions sprinkled in the cranberries to make it look more festive. I served this with pita chips and sociable crackers. Everyone loved it. Thanks for posting! I made this for Zaar 123 (4 Dec 08) Wonders!

Did you know that you can type in the degree symbol ° by holding down the Alt key and typing 248? Go ahead try it, I'll wait. Cool eh?
Just a note to anyone making my recipes. If you have taken pictures of them, please feel free to post them right away. I love seeing what others come up with and want them all posted.
Also, I am VERY slow to return Zmails. I'm sorry, but that's just how I roll. I will of course answer you if you have questions, but it might take a day.
Thanks! :)

I am also very glad to say that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. I see His blessings in my everyday life. I am married to the love of my life and we've been together about 10 years. I always follow the rule of Faith first, Family second, Career third. Since I've had those priorities in order, everything has fallen right into line.

I have 4 children at home - 12, 10, 8, 6. My oldest son is 12 and has severe autism, and he lives with his father. I also have a baby boy - Furrynando. I think he gets the most attention.

I have fibromyalgia and I also have quite a few back problems. I was supposed to have a spinal fusion surgery Sept 08, but the insurance declined at the last moment. I cannot think of many people out there having elective back surgery, but you never know. I haven't been pain free in over 10 years. But... I do get to park really close to the doors at Walmart :)
UPDATE:
I had my surgery! Oh thank God I can walk and sit and do so many things again. I finally have life to live!

My star system....
5* = Awesome! Totally rocked our socks!
4* = Very good, but needs 'something'.
3* = We ate it, tried it anyways.
2* = Yuck. We ordered pizza instead.
1* = Terrible food. Terrible instructions. Cat tried to bury it.
I try not give anything below 3 stars. I might just leave a comment instead. If it really aggravated me, then I will definitely leave a lower star rating. I will always explain in my review how it went over.
