Of course we know cranberry sauce as one of the most iconic Thanksgiving foods. That’s the day of the year where it belongs and it doesn’t really venture much of anywhere else. Until last year when I made this little version and my husband flipped. He asks for it year-round. And obviously, I’ve got to make it on our day of thanksgiving too. It’s fast. It’s classic. It’s heart-warming. All things any piece of the Thanksgiving feast should be.
Well now, we also do it for christmas when we can too!
