Mama's Cranberry Salad

1 bag fresh cranberries
1 large Granny Smith or other tart green apple
1 large orange
1 large Honey Crisp or other red apple
1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
1 large box raspberry jello
2 cups water
1 cup sugar

Zest the orange, peel, and liquefy in the food processor. Chop all the other fruit in the food processor, and add to large bowl with orange and zest. Add nuts. Bring water and sugar to a boil until sugar dissolves completely. Remove from heat, let cool just a bit, and whisk in Jello. Don't be hating on the Jello, here; it's not really noticeable, but helps things hold together. You could use unflavored gelatin and additional sugar if you wish. Pour Jello over fruit, give a good stir, and refrigerate overnight.
