Easy Cranberry Sauce Recipe

I am going to let you in on a little secret — my favorite dish for Thanksgiving is the Cranberry Sauce ( well…. that is sorta half true — everything I have will have cranberry sauce on it ( I am not a gravy fan) )

I love to cook so you know I am ALL over Thanksgiving – it is a tradition that I cook Thanksgiving with my mom – I usually tackle some sides, pies, and that VERY important cranberry sauce while she cooks the Turkey and green bean casserole

Though I have made and published over 640 + recipes I have never posted my cranberry sauce ( SAY WHAT?!)

I have discussed making homemade cranberry sauce before to readers and I am surprised how many buy the canned cranberry sauce because they think it would be too hard to make their own.

Well — it is easy and I decided to make a video 🙂

Recipe videos will be more and more frequent here at Budget Savvy Diva – I personally am I visual learner so I personally prefer seeing recipes made rather then reading it  ( I would love to know what you think)

Enjoy the video 🙂 Please comment what other types of recipes would you like me to film
