We all know its not about how long it takes to make something, but about the end product.

And this is one end product that will make it look like you put a ton of effort into making your cranberry sauce just right.

All that is required are just a few simple ingredients: fresh cranberries, sugar, orange juice.

A recipe with just 3 ingredients- for real.

And this isn’t one of those 3-ingredient recipes that includes some random pre-made mix as one of the ingredients.  No.

All you will find here are simple, easy to find, real ingredients.

Sweet to curb the tang.
