3-Ingredient Cranberry Sauce

I have a confession to make — I am a cranberry sauce convert! Before this recipe, I did not usually go for the cranberry sauce on Thanksgiving!    This 3-Ingredient Cranberry Sauce changed my mind about this holiday favorite!

What definitely changed my opinion was how easy this recipe is.  I think I was a little intimidated by it.  This side dish starts with these beautiful cranberries! This turns into …..

It not only uses 3-ingredients (cranberries, orange juice, and sugar) but it only takes 10 minutes to make.

In a large saucepan, heat up the orange juice and sugar until it dissolves.  Add the cranberries until they start to pop — once popped, these will soften up on their own.  It takes about ten minutes.

Remove the cranberry sauce from the pot into a bowl and let it cool and thicken.
