In the past I used it with turkey or chicken breast in place of mayo because it added so much more flavor. I hope you like it as much as we do.<br /><br />Aisling,<br /><br />Thank you for the details. I thought you would need to break up the berries somehow and add sugar.<br /><br />I also included the extra fruit in my version to reduce the agave. Once I learned how detrimental sugar is to the human body (cancer or not) I decided to reduce it as much as I could. It is very interesting to me how little sweetener we now need after cutting back our consumption of sugar for 6 months. Our taste buds seem to have adjusted to the reduced sugar. <br /><br />Thanks for letting me know you like my emphasis on nutrition. I often wonder if that turns people off or not.<br /><br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-29911653807750331202009-12-01T06:56:36.804-05:002009-12-01T06:56:36.804-05:00Alicia, I used my food processor to grate each ite...Alicia, I used my food processor to grate each item. The pineapple I used was crushed from a can, left over from a dessert. The version I've made in previous years was just grated cranberries, oranges, and walnuts (plus sugar.) If you look up recipes look up cranberry relish (rather than sauce.) Adding some sweeter fruits allows one to reduce the amount of added sugar.<br /><br />Nice to meet you too. I've been reading your blog for a few weeks and really enjoy your emphasis on nutrition. :)Marciehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00582731584317660272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-12329439290686046902009-12-01T02:46:56.132-05:002009-12-01T02:46:56.132-05:00Oh, I love a sweet and tart dish too.

There was pineapple in my frig I considering adding to this but in the end didn't want this to be too much like the butternut squash salad.<br /><br />You don't cook the cranberries? Interesting. Do you grind them up first? As you can tell I haven't made a raw version of cranberry sauce. I imagine the textures are very different. Cooked cranberry sauce is similar to the texture of jam. <br /><br />Thanks for the idea of a raw cranberry sauce, I may have to play around with that a little.<br /><br />Nice to meet you, and thanks for commenting,<br />AliciaVegan Epicureanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08203676819322299569noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3790414766945352054.post-57599046763294665212009-11-30T23:11:10.567-05:002009-11-30T23:11:10.567-05:00Sounds delicious.

My cranberry relish this year (a slight variation on what I've made in the past) had similar ingredients: cranberry, orange, apple, pineapple, and fresh grated giner. The biggest difference is that mine is "raw" and served cold. Your post got me thinking; I don't think I've made a cooked variation Ever! I may have to try that for Christmas.

Many years ago my father started the cranberry sauce on a sandwich tradition at our house and it stuck.
