Cranberry Sauce

I only make this on special occasions as it has a good bit of sugar.  But Thanksgiving needs cranberry sauce, and not from a can.  The other time I make it is with chicken corn chowder or wild rice soup - I just think the flavors compliment each other perfectly.  The recipe is easy, make ahead, and yummy.


1 bag of fresh cranberries
3/4 cup sugar
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 jar orange marmalade
zest of 1 lemon peel

Put cranberries and sugar in an oven proof dish.  Stir well, cover and bake at 350 until cranberries begin to pop, stirring occasionally.  Remove and cool slightly, then stir in remaining ingredients.
