Cranberry-Pomegranate Sauce w/Red Wine

I like a tiny bite of  turkey and a healthy serving of dressing with my cranberry sauce at Thanksgiving time but ~ 
not all cranberry sauces are created equal!

We try to appease everyone around our Thanksgiving table whether it’s with the canned jellied version or whole-fruit cranberry sauce with an assortment of add-ins like this great recipe.

 

This dish is pretty and tasty and should be served around the year.  

If you like pomegranates, a  little wine and seasonings with your cranberries ~ this recipe is for you…
