Simple Organic Cranberry Sauce
"This is a simple cranberry sauce recipe that can be made even easier by substituting 1 cup of orange juice for the fresh orange. Sweetness can be adjusted depending on taste. I'd recommend anywhere from 1/3 to 1 cup. All organic ingredients can be substituted, depending on availability."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I try to stay away from foods laced with preservatives and use whole grains and organic ingredients whenever its feasible.
I've got a toddler son who inspires me to create healthy, diverse menus. I strive to introduce him to a wide variety of foods and dishes. I began making his food at home the moment he started on solids and have enjoyed every moment of his food exploration so far. Helping him expand his palate and avoid a lifetime of picky eating is a high priority for me.
My biggest recipe hurdle is that I have a terrible habit of not writing down what I've done when I experiment. So, when I create some great new recipe that I just love, I can never manage to duplicate it to perfection. It happens time and time again and I just never seem to learn my lesson.
