Organic Thanksgiving: Cranberry Pomegranate Relish

With only two days to Thanksgiving, we didn't want to be stingy and keep all the good organic recipes to ourselves. This particular one stood out as something that could be a nice add on. The website it came from has about 10 other recipes for Turkey Day too.

Ingredients:

3 cups fresh cranberries (about 12 ounces) (stems removed)
3/8 cup date sugar
1 cup orange juice

2 tablespoons fresh rosemary leaves
1 large orange (cut into 1/2-inch pieces)
2/3 cup pomegranate seeds

Directions:

Combine cranberries, sugar, orange juice, and orange peel in a large saucepan. Stir over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium; simmer until berries begin to burst. Turn heat to medium-low and cook another 10 minutes, stirring often. Mince rosemary leaves; then stir into sauce with orange segments and pomegranate seeds. Transfer to a small serving bowl.
