A Delicious Twist on a Thanksgiving Favorite!
In the spirit of the Thanksgiving season, I am sharing my secret cranberry sauce recipe with you. This is a fun recipe to have children help you make. Towards the end of the cooking process the cranberries almost magically transform into sauce. Added bonus… your home is filled with mouth-watering fragrance.
