Cranberry-Pomegranate Sauce

Well, this was my first attempt at making cranberry sauce.  I actually never even ate cranberry sauce until a couple of years ago...but now I love it...and making it is really easy.  Not to mention I didn't use any high fructose corn syrup in mine, which is better than all the canned varieties can claim. :)

I used the Pioneer Woman's recipe.....because I think she's wonderful and it sounded good. 

Recipe

16 oz. fresh cranberries (rinse and toss out bad ones)
16 fl. oz pomegranate juice
3/4 c. sugar - more or less to taste. 

Combine all ingredients in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.  Boil, stirring often, for 20 minutes.  Mixture will thicken as it cooks and will thicken even more when it cools.  I tasted mine when it was lukewarm and it was way too tart....maybe it was just a tart bunch of cranberries. I added more sugar and cooked several more minutes until it was even thicker and more to my liking. 

Cool in a jar or bowl in fridge.  Serve with turkey.  Absolutely delicious!
