And here's another recipe......
Cranberry Sauce/Relish {Raw}
Printable Version {Raw Cranberry Sauce/Relish}
Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) bag cranberries
1 orange
¾ cup sugar
Directions:
Grind the cranberries and whole orange in a food grinder, blender or food processor until mostly smooth. If you’d like you can put the whole orange segments and all of the zest (thoroughly zested) in and blend up. Add sugar and blend more til combined.
Let cranberry mixture sit in a bowl, stir occasionally. The longer the sugar has to soak into the cranberries the less tart it will be. You can add more sugar to taste if you’d like.
Serve as a side with your Thanksgiving meal. Or use as a relish on a leftover turkey and roll sandwich.
Enjoy!
