Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 1 bag Fresh Cranberries
  • 1 Orange zested and cut into supremes, then chopped
  • ⅓ C Sugar
  • ½ medium Red Onion minced
  • 1-2 Jalapeños minced
  • ¼ C Fresh Mint roughly chopped

Instructions
 

  • Prepare all ingredients by washing and cutting per instructions above.
  • Add cranberries to bowl of food processor fitted with a blade attachment. Pulse a few times until the cranberries are roughly chopped.
  • Add sugar to cranberries and pulse 1-2 more times.
  • Stir sugared cranberries with remaining ingredients. Allow to macerate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight. Serve with entrée of choice. Enjoy!

Notes

  • If you want to make the relish more than a day ahead of time, add all ingredients except mint. It should keep in the fridge for up to a week. Add mint prior to serving for optimal color.
  • For a lower glycemic impact, feel free to substitute agave for the sugar.
  • Add more jalapeños for more heat. Remove jalapeño seeds and membranes for less heat.
