Cranberry Sauce

Cranberry Sauce...
It's not just for Thanksgiving~

We love cranberry sauce and in my house,
we eat it throughout the winter months.
We like to serve cranberry sauce alongside
grilled chicken, pork tenderloin or duck.

This recipe for cranberry sauce is so easy to make....
from start to finish, it takes about 20 minutes.

We like cranberry sauce on the tart side and
prefer to make cranberry sauce with lemon or
tangerines instead of the usual orange.

It's great spooned over rice pudding,
spread on bagels with cream cheese and
even spooned over vanilla ice cream~

Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce is
great spooned over rice pudding,
as a topping on toasted bagels,
spooned over vanilla ice cream or
spooned over a block of cream cheese,
for a quick and delicious appetizer.
