Thanksgiving tables are full of rich, comforting dishes and this Cranberry Orange Relish brings the perfect balance with its fresh, zesty pop of flavor. It’s a no-cook recipe that celebrates cranberries natural tartness while adding a citrusy lift from fresh orange. This simple dish feels homemade and special but comes together in minutes, leaving you more time to enjoy the holiday (and less time in the kitchen).
Ingredients:
- 12 oz (1 bag) fresh cranberries, rinsed
- 1 large orange (with peel), cut into chunks and removed seeds
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar (adjust to taste)
- Optional add-ins: a pinch of cinnamon, chopped pecans, or a splash of orange liqueur
Instructions:
- In a food processor, combine cranberries, orange chunks, and sugar.
- Pulse until finely chopped and well combined — but not puréed (you want texture!).

- Chill for at least 30 minutes before serving to let flavors meld
Wishing you all a Happy Thanksgiving!
