How Can I Dress Up Canned Cranberry Jelly?

colliegirls · ‎05-13-2012

Some of my family loves it right out of the can but I would like to add something fast and easy to it this year. I had a recipe I printed out last year but I cannot find it, nothing googled sounds easy enough for me!

If people LIKE it right out of the can, why wouldn't you want to serve what people like?

It's so easy to make your own, why serve it out of the can if you are going to take the time to doctor it up?

my first response was tie a hula skirt to the can

I actually LOVE canned jellied cranberry sauce. Please don't add anything to it! Just open both ends with a can opener - shake it until it falls out on a saucer - and then slice it and then fan it out on a plate that has been dressed up with a few lettuce leaves. That's all you need to do!

We always serve canned jelly cranberry sauce for the "kids" ... they love it, but it has to be just slipped out of the can and set in a serving bowl. I also make cranberry sauce following the recipe on the bag, but adding orange pieces and walnuts!

Make it fresh, it is a million times better and so easy. Use the recipe on the back of the bag but use orange zest and fresh squeezed orange juice instead of the water. Takes about a minute to prepare! They'll be very impressed

There is an old saying, poor grammar, but true, "if if ain't broke, don't fix it."

We use the can with the whole cranberries (not the smooth); add drained mandarin oranges and chopped walnuts. It's always a hit. It has crunch and the mandarin oranges compliment the sweetness of the cranberries.
