Hey RK? joya made alissa'a mock (noasted?) turkey and her cranberry relish. I would eat it as a snack...

Hi VFL! I have not tried it. Going to look it up now. :)

I just thought it would be really good mixed with baby spinach too. Or as a "jam" on crackers.

I would serve it as a Salad on a Bed of Greens, especially with Thanksgiving around the corner.

I tested the recipe this morning. I didn't have a full cup of cranberries. At $10 a lb for organic cranberries I only bought $1.60 worth.

I used the food processor instead of the Vitamix. It tasted kind of plain and boring. The addition of cinnamon enhanced it greatly. I ate half of it with a spoon right out of the processor.

The other half of the sauce went into the Vitamix with romaine, water, one date, and another sprinkle of cinnamon. Made an AWESOME smoothie!

Didn't see the word Sauce, just read the ingredients and I've had the same Relish or simular before. Thanks.......
