I love cranberry sauce as a side dish with turkey
or chicken – and not just at Thanksgiving or
Christmas. Cranberries are loaded with antioxidants
and are very good for you. The problem is
that canned cranberry sauce is loaded with sugar.
This is so easy to make that there is no need to
buy canned cranberries again!
