Jello Holiday Salad

Submitted by MathMom.calif

"Here's a recipe I used to make a lot for big family gatherings at Thanksgiving or Christmas. Could be served any time you want a cool, refreshing salad with the flavors of raspberries and cranberries and the creaminess of sour cream. From a church fund raiser cookbook, around 1984. Passive cooking time is a guesstimate for the chilling time required. (It's been a long time since I made this...)"
