Fresh & Organic: Cranberry Sauce

Cranberry Sauce Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water or orange juice
4 cups fresh or frozen cranberries (1 – 12 oz. pkg)
(optional: pecans, orange peel, raisins, currants, cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice)

Directions: Wash and pick over cranberries. In a saucepan bring to a boil water/orange juice and sugar, stirring to dissolve sugar. Add cranberries, return to a boil. Reduce heat, simmer 10 minutes or until cranberries burst.
At this point you may add any optional ingredients.
