Dixie Salad with Pomegranates


This is a very simple recipe that the pioneers made when they first came to southern Utah.
3 red apples, cut into small pieces
3 green apples, cut into small pieces
seeds from 4 pomegranates
red grapes
nuts
whipping cream whipped with sugar or Cool Whip
When you remove the seeds from the pomegranates, be sure not to let any of the membranes get in the salad. They are bitter tasting. If you put the seeds in water, the membranes will float. Mix everything together and chill until ready to serve.

Kay makes that, too, for Thanksgiving every year. She puts pecans and celery in it and raisins sometimes instead of grapes.

Peggy, if you have a caramel sauce recipe, especially one that uses sweetened condensed milk, can you post it? I ruined something at Thanksgiving with a grainy caramel paste.
