Sprucing up Cranberry Sauce: Cranberry-Orange Relish


Are you tired of using your can opener and letting your cranberry sauce slink out of an aluminum can? Then, this is your go-to dish. It has the fresh flavor and type of acidity you're looking for to cut through an often heavy meal like Thanksgiving.

Ingredients:
  • 1-12 oz. package fresh cranberries
  • 1 medium orange
  • ¾ to 1 c. sugar
Directions:
  1. Cut unpeeled orange into eight pieces. Remove white stuff. 
  2. Combine oranges and cranberries in Cuisinart/food processor and grind till desired thickness. Add sugar. 
  3. Cover tightly in plastic wrap and store in fridge until it's time to eat. 

*A really great thing about this dish is it's better if you do it a day or two ahead of Thanksgiving to allow the flavors to marry. The sugar works like a charm and you can freeze it for future eats.

Your food blog always makes me salivate. I was looking back at old posts and saw a bunch of pizza, which made my soul cry out for the deliciousness of Matchbox.

My every waking moment is tortured by longing for the miniburgers.
