CRANBERRY CHUTNEY

In addition to accompanying any duck or turkey dish, the chutney, like the cranberry itself, is versatile and can be spread on bread or cheese, used in lieu of butter or served as a side dish.  Cranberries are very high in antioxidants and certain nutrients that may provide protection against bacteria associated with food poisoning and urinary tract infections.  You can make your own cranberry sauce, but you’ll need sugar or Splenda to make it gel; other sugar substitutes don’t work.
