CBD-Cranberry Sauce – Holiday Recipes

 

Cranberries have always been a favourite of mine, especially the leftovers as I make this great cranberry-walnut bread. So I welcome cranberry recipes, whether they are for Thanksgiving or Christmas.

Cranberries are at the top due to their high nutrient and antioxidant content. They are sometimes referred to as ‘superfoods’ because of their health benefits and are low on calories, coming in at only 25 per cup!

Ingredients:

• 12 ounces of Whole Cranberries
• 1 cup white Sugar
• 1 cup of Orange Juice
• 3 – 4 drops of relaxing CBD Oil
• ½ cup chopped pineapple
• ⅓ cup chopped pecans

Directions:

Dissolve the sugar in the orange juice in a medium saucepan over a moderate simmer. Add the pecans and cranberries and stir. Simmer until the cranberries begin to burst. It should take ten minutes or so. Stir for 30 to 60 seconds after adding the pineapple.

Take off the heat and transfer the sauce to a bowl. After five minutes, add three or four drops of Receptra CBD oil and stir. As it cools, the Thanksgiving CBD Cranberry Sauce will get thicker.
