Fresh Cranberry Sauce and Picture Book Thanksgiving Help

Fresh Cranberry SauceLast post talked about self-empowerment and how this site can help you put together life-promoting meals, even if you’ve never cooked before, with easy-to-follow step-by-step picture book recipes.

I don’t know about you, but Thanksgiving is my favorite holidays because all that is expected is having a great tasting meal with family and friends. Unfortunately, some of the “greatness” of Thanksgiving might be diminished this year due to Covid-19 restrictions. My recommendation: accentuate the positive. Enjoy Thanksgiving with those closest to you and make it as richly flavorful as you can.

One of the easiest full-on traditional Thanksgiving flavors to nail is fresh cranberry sauce. Homemade fresh cranberry sauce, with its rich sweet and sour flavor and mouth pleasing snap-pop, tastes much better than canned cranberry sauce and is literally just as easy to make as boiled water. Fresh cranberry sauce can also be made well in advance and keeps fresh for weeks in the refrigerator.

Here’s all you need to make fresh cranberry sauce. Note: you’ll see a carton of orange juice in the picture below. Cranberry sauce recipes usually call for water. Instead of water, I like using fruit juice – orange juice as shown or apple or any other juice – for added flavor.
