Luby'S-Style Cafeteria Cranberry Fruit Salad

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup water
• 1 (12 ounce) package fresh cranberries, washed and picked over
• 1 apple, unpeeled (I like jonagolds)
• 1 orange, peeled and white pith removed
• 1 banana, peeled
• 1 cup broken walnuts or 1 cup pecans

1. In a saucepan, mix sugar and water, stirring to dissolve sugar. Bring to a boil.
2. Add cranberries. Return to a boil, reduce heat and boil gently 4 to 5 minutes or until most cranberries have popped, stirring occasionally.
3. Remove cranberries from heat and cool completely at room temperature.
4. Quarter the apple; core and chop. Add to cool cranberries. Chop the orange and banana and add to cranberries with the nuts.
5. Mix well and refrigerate until serving time, at least 4 hours or overnight.
