The uses for this chutney are endless: Top oatmeal with warm chutney Top pancakes or waffles with chutney, and dust with powdered sugar Serve over a roasted sweet potato Serve with pork chops Serve warm with a scoop (or two!) of real vanilla ice cream Spoon into plain or vanilla yogurt And, of course, serve as a side dish to turkey and stuffing for Thanksgiving! Or, do as I just did, and eat with a fork right out of the bowl...

Enjoy!

Why (the science): ): Canned cranberry sauce is made with high fructose corn syrup and regular corn syrup, and offers zero nutritional value- no fiber, vitamins, or minerals. This homemade chutney version provides 5 grams of fiber per ¼ cup! That’s a whopping 20% of your daily value for fiber. It even has 25% of your daily value for vitamin C. Buh bye, canned sauce! Hello, fresh cranberry chutney ;)
