My first ever attempt at 'real' cranberry sauce and it was delicious. I used fresh squeezed orange juice instead of the water. It is only me at home so I incorporated the leftovers instead of applesauce in oatmeal cookies...good stuff! Thanks for a great recipe :) -
We had this with turkey and it complimented it perfectly. It is hard to get cranberries here and they are pretty expensive so I halved the recipe but it worked out perfectly. I think it would go really good with deer as well. -
Thank you so much for this recipe. I follow the recipe as wriiten, this is even good with pork or lamb. Everyone loved it last Thanksgiving with the turkey. Thank you so much. I will never buy canned cranberry sauce again. -
I looked for a wine/cranberry sauce after having been served some at a charity luncheon put on by Houston top chefs. I found this recipe and I knew it would be similar to what I had already tasted. I used a cheap leftover sweet red wine I had forgotten in the refrigerator and used a little less sugar. It turned out PERFECT. -
My new signature dish - served it last night - already had 3 requests for the recipe. Too easy (just as easy as opening a can). The 30 min prep seems rather high though...or I did something different since we had it bubbling away in only 5.

I live in south texas and own an interior decorating firm. we cook for fun with friends and family. my favorite recipes are the ones received from friends. we have a nice garden so we get eat alot of fresh veggies and herbs all year round. I am also a golf-wife so I have taken up hobbies in self defense. I love to exercise, garden, paint, & sew. My darling hubby was my HS sweetheart but we didn't marry until we had 3 other marriages & 4 children between us.
