One way to utilize cranberries and make them star of their dish is in this week’s recipe.  Provided to us by Big Mill Bed & Breakfast, this side dish is simple to make but has a complexity of flavors and textures.  If you’re looking for a new way to add cranberries to your Thanksgiving menu, or any other dinner, give this recipe a try.
