Now, I have this problem that may or may not be unique to my little family. You see, I'm the only one who loves cranberry sauce! Every year, I buy a whole container of cranberry sauce, only to have one or two servings before throwing the rest away. What a waste! I can't simply give it up. Oh, no! It wouldn't be Thanksgiving dinner without my cranberry sauce! So I've devised a simple method to have my cranberry sauce without waste. I make a small batch.
This recipe easily doubles to accommodate a family that's more appreciative of a good cranberry sauce.
Whole Berry Stove Top Cranberry Sauce
Serves 2 to 4 depending on portion size
- 6 oz fresh cranberries (use the other half of the bag bought for the sweet potatoes!)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2/3 cup water
- Combine all the ingredients in a saucepan with high sides.
- Bring to a boil. Stir frequently.
- Cook and stir about 15 minutes. Cool completely before serving.
I'm thankful for loving family and good friends to keep nearby during this holiday season and always. What are you thankful for?
