Southwestern Corn and Cranberry Salad

Dried cranberries should be plump and firm in the bag, not dried up or hard. They should also have a distinct cranberry smell. Look for packages that have no added sugar. As a note, there's no salt in the recipe because the canned chiles have quite a bit of sodium.
