Homemade Cranberry Sauce Recipe

Can you believe that I had never had fresh cranberry sauce until last year? Now that I’ve tried it I can never go back to the cran in a can. It’s so easy to make and it’s so delicious. I like using it as a spread for my left over turkey sandwiches. Yum.

3/4 cup

1. In a medium size saucepan bring water, sugar and salt to a boil. Stir occasionally until sugar is dissolved.
2. Stir in cranberries and return to a boil. Reduce heat to medium.
