Although I'm not too fond of red hots, I AM usually game to try something at least once, & so, this recipe! I was surprised how well it turned out & we did thoroughly enjoy it! I'm still using frozen cranberries from the first of the year, & also included homemade applesauce here! Thanks for the recipe for this surprisingly tasty dish!
