With cranberry harvesting season now in full swing, it’s the perfect time for me to share more great recipe ideas and helpful hints about incorporating cranberries into your diet. By the end of October, you’ll have had just about enough of cranberries.
Cranberry Sauce is a Classic
What good would cranberries be if you didn’t at least make your very own homemade cranberry sauce? Making homemade cranberry sauce is relatively easy and only requires a few key ingredients -- besides the obvious cranberries. The only other ingredients you’ll need are orange juice and sugar.
Let’s Get Started
Simply combine one cup of orange juice and ½ cup sugar. Bring to a boil. Add 12 ounces of cranberries and return to a boil.
Once you’ve made cranberry sauce, you’ll want to take advantage of the following clever ways to include cranberry sauce in your meal planning. Cranberry sauce makes a tasty side dish for both lunch and dinner. Don’t hesitate to freeze any leftover cranberry sauce you make.
Lunch Munch
Impress your friends with your culinary creativity and add cranberry sauce in a thin layer to a tortilla with smoked turkey. Make lunch for your coworkers one day. Wrap all the ingredients up and enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving meal in a portable sandwich wrap. Include finely-laced Swiss cheese for the perfect combination. You can also add the cranberry sauce as a condiment for a turkey sandwich on traditional square bread.
Cranberry Crackers
A bit of cranberry sauce is an excellent topping for crackers, and makes a quick and tasty snack. Also, a bit of cranberry sauce makes an excellent topping for your morning oatmeal, so don’t feel that your cranberries are only limited to lunch and dinner.
I hope you enjoy the above recipe suggestions. Please come back and let me know the creativity ways you’ve found to use your cranberry sauce.
