Jalapeno Cranberry Sauce

Are cranberries your thing?  I feel like you either are or you are not.  Well this girl… BIG fan.  A few of my favorite recipes are these Cranberry Bran Muffins & Cranberry Bars.  I  have to say though, this Jalapeño Cranberry Sauce is definately in my top 3 now. 

Cranberry Love!

There is just something about these tart little berries that I cannot get enough of.  I love them in desserts, as a garnish, in drinks and definately as a side.    They are so easy to use and so festive.

In this sauce the cranberries are truly the star but withe a little kick.  The jalapeño and spices bring out the tartness, with a hint of sweet making this a perfect pairing for pork, chicken, turkey or on a charcuterie board… really anything.

A little kick

To make this sauce something to remember we made it a little kicky.  Don’t worry it is not too kicky, it is just right.  The added jalapeño and spices just add a little something extra to the traditional  sauce.

It is also super pretty… red and green and all.

It is cranberry time!
