Cranberry Chutney

Home made Cranberry Chutney is so easy to make you won’t buy it from a store ever again. The flavors of orange, apple, ginger and cranberry combine to make a great tasting chutney for the holidays. We serve it with our Thanksgiving dinner instead of canned cranberry sauce.

We like to add a cup of pecan pieces to the recipe. Most of our family and guests like nuts, so it makes a nice crunchy flavor addition to an already great recipe.

As an appetizer it can be placed in a bowl and served with crackers or it can be used with the Baked Brie and chutney recipe.

My doctor recently told me that jogging could add years to my life. I think he was right. I feel ten years older already.
