What are cranberries?
Cranberries are a small but mighty fruit packed with flavor and nutrition. These tart little berries are a staple in many holiday dishes, but they can be enjoyed year-round in various recipes. Not only do cranberries add a burst of flavor to dishes, but they also come with an array of health benefits. Cranberries are high in antioxidants, which may help protect against cell damage and curb the risk of chronic diseases. One of the most popular ways to enjoy cranberries is in the form of cranberry sauce.
This classic Thanksgiving side dish pairs perfectly with turkey but can also be used as a spread on sandwiches or a topping for yogurt or oatmeal. Cranberries can also be used in baking, adding a sweet and tart flavor to muffins, breads, and desserts. They can even be used in savory dishes like stuffing or meatballs. In addition to their culinary uses, cranberries have been shown to have potential health benefits when it comes to thwarting urinary tract infections and promoting gut health. So, next time you want to add flavor and nutrition to your meals, consider reaching for some cranberries.
