PROCEDURE
Place cranberries in food processor; process until coarsely chopped and transfer to bowl. Cut lime with peel into small chunks. Process until finely diced. add to cranberries along with sugar and minced jalapeno. Mix in cilantro.
Refrigerate relish for several hours to allow flavors to mellow and blend.
Serve chilled with Ham or Turkey

NOTES
Because jalapeno peppers vary widely in "heat", I usually start with 2 peppers and then taste it to see if more should be added. I usually end up adding one or two extra. But it all depends on who you are serving it to!

Becuase my housemate does not like cilantro, I sometimes make 2 batches, one as above and one with fresh mint used instead of cilantro. It gives it a very different flavor. I like it both ways!
