Savory Cranberry Sauce As An Intriguing Variation
We love cranberries and enjoy them raw and cooked, sweet, tart – and yes, savory – as in Savory Cranberry Sauce!
This Savory Cranberry Sauce uses classic holiday herbs like sage, rosemary and thyme in addition to sugar and balsamic vinegar to create a less sweet condiment that works perfectly alongside holiday turkeys, pork roasts, roast beef – even weeknight chicken!
The FODY Garlic-Infused Olive Oil and FODY Lemon & Herb Spice Blend make this super easy to throw together.
Be Adventurous
We have promised you from the get-go that at FODMAP Everydayยฎ we are going to help you thrive! This isnโt about just getting by! How about using this sauce as a condiment alongside low FODMAP cheeses?
