❓ What’s So Great About Cranberries
Cranberries are a staple of the holiday season, front and center during both Thanksgiving and Christmas. No surprise there since early autumn is prime cranberry-harvesting season. These vibrant, tart little berries are super versatile – you can turn them into sauce, bake them into breads and cakes and pies, mash them into salsa, and sprinkle them over salads. Their juice is thought by some to help UTIs, and their high amount of antioxidants is thought to boost immunity while their phenolic compounds may aid in cancer prevention.
Whether you buy your cranberries fresh, frozen, or in a can, there’s no end to the number of cranberry recipes you can whip up to enhance your holiday meals. These are just a few of the ones we love!
