This is an interesting twist on cranberry sauce. So much of the Thanksgiving meal needs to be traditional, but this was one dish I felt I could jazz up without spoiling expectations.

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 orange
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 (12 ounce) package cranberries
1 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 (6 ounce) container blueberries

Steps:

  • Remove peel from orange (save orange).

  • Combine 1cup sugar, 1cup water and orange peel in a saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil, then simmer until peel becomes translucent.
  • Remove peel from sugar and let cool.
  • Dice candied orange peel (this could probably be done before being candied, but I find it easier to fish out the slices).

  • Add blueberries (reserving a few for garnish) and about 2 Tbsp (or to taste) diced candied orange peel.
