Cranberry sauce is one of the easiest dishes you can make for your Thanksgiving table. There are only four ingredients, and almost no work involved. You can also put it together ahead of time, which makes it even simpler to have fresh cranberry sauce on your table. And, if you haven’t tried homemade cranberry sauce before, trust me when I say that it is so much better than the canned stuffed. It is well worth the (very minimal) effort!
