Maple Cranberry Sauce is sweetened with maple syrup which offers a bit more nutritional value compared to white sugar. Imagine how you can expand your use of this cranberry sauce beyond the traditional side for roasted turkey once a year, and serve it along side roasted chicken or broiled pork chops.
Featured Ingredient
Cranberries are so hard, sour, and bitter when fresh that 95% of them are processed before consumption! One of the few fruits native to North America, they are an excellent source of polyphenols and a good source fiber, manganese, vitamin C, and vitamin E.
