Classic Cranberry Sauce

I love cranberry sauce as a side dish with turkey
or chicken. 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!
Ingredients:
  • 12 oz. bag cranberries (2 cups frozen)
  • 1 cup water
  • 2/3 cup Xagave
Steps:
Bring cranberries, water and Xagave to a boil, reduce temperature to simmer for 5 to 6 minutes until cranberries pop and the sauce thickens.
Orange Cranberry Sauce:
Exchange 1/2 cup water for orange juice in the Classic Recipe and add 2 tsp. of orange zest.
Lemon Cranberry Sauce:
Exchange 1/4 cup lemon juice for 1/4 water in the Classic Recipe and 2 tsp. of lemon zest.
Pomegranate Cranberry Sauce:
Add 1/4 cup of pomegranate seeds to the Classic Recipe.

    I added a one-inch piece of ginger, thinly sliced. It was the BOMB! Everyone loved this, especially when it was drizzled over sweet potato “cheese”cake [made with tofu]. Yum!
