Cranberry Orange Sauce

Cranberry Orange Sauce

Most cranberry sauces call for a cup of sugar for each bag of cranberries. It makes my teeth feel like they are going to rot just thinking about it. Granted, cranberries are uber sour, so they do need something to sweeten them up, but orange juice does the trick brightening it up. Adding oranges and orange juice to add not only citrus flavor, but also their natural sugars.
