What can I do with jars of Cranberry Sauce?

oooh, nothing nicer than cold yorkshire puddings with a dollop of cranberry sauce in the middle for an evening snack. yum yum yum.

I like a bit of sweetness in my gravy - sure the cranberry sauce would be nice though I usually use up the odds and ends of our HM jellies. Try adding a dollop next time you make some.

I am almost certain that someone I know oven-cooked a pork lion in a mixture of cranberry sauce and cream. Was a long time ago but I'm sure I've got it right.

They were brave! :eek:

I would bake some tarts with cheese and cranberry. In fact I might actually do that now...

I always add cranberry sauce to beef gravy, i takes off any bitterness you can get sometimes with homemade gravy

I also use cranberry instead of redcurrant with lamb chops , i dollop some on top and cook in the oven

I put cranberry sauce into a standard muffin mix. My basic muffin recipe uses 280g flour and you add 200g cranberry sauce and 60g walnuts. They're very moist and yummy.

i put a dollop in my gravy, and if im doing a casserole with red wine or or port i sometimes put a dollop in there too. if yuor jars are sealed they will keep well after the sell by date

I've made this when friends were over mid-week: http://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/2265/braised-beef-with-red-wine-and-cranberry

I did add garlic though, and used up some chesnut mushrooms I had (the wine was also left over) and left it in the slow cooker. It went down really well and required practically no effort.

Otherwise, I lived on turkey and cranberry melts in the few days after Christmas - I'm really in the mood for one now!
