Wonderful menu again!! I haven't bought any turkeys yet, and need to do so this week or soon! I bought some fresh cranberries the other day. What else do you do with them besides sauce? We also bought some pomegranates because we were reading about them in the bible and the kids wanted to try them. How do you cut them and eat them? LOL I have never had one!

Thank you Joy!
ReplyDeleteWe make slushies sometimes with them. (ice, berries, water or juice, sweetener)
You can chop and use in muffins and breads.

If you can't find enough uses for them, toss them like they are in the freezer...in the bags they came in.
Pomegranates are a little messy- but worth every bit of trouble!
Just cut them in half and turn them inside out as you can to pop the seeds lose. You eat the whole 'jewel' as I call them ...because they are so pretty.
I want to make some jelly with them sometime. Love them! I think you'll see why they ended up in special places in the Bible ;-)
