Easy Cranberry Relish

As a busy college student, I am finding it harder and harder to keep up the food blog. That said, I have made (and eaten) many delicious things in the past few months. Many of these recipes are simple and extremely quick, yet they turn out impressively gourmet.

Here's one from thanksgiving, delicious on turkey, salad, bread, or even on its own. It's unbelievably simple, but it's a delicious and fresh alternative to traditional cranberry sauce.

The recipe is from my organic chemistry lab professor....

5-minute Cranberry relish

• 1 bag of cranberries
• 1 apple
• 1 orange
• 1/2-3/4 c sugar (however tart you want to make it)

Chop apple and orange into large chunks (don't peel them--the peel adds good flavor!). Place them in a Cuisinart. Blend. Add the cranberries (after they have been washed, and the bad ones sorted out). Blend again. Add the sugar. Blend again. And, it's done....in 6 minutes or less. Add some orange zest for garnish if you choose.
