Sweet and Tangy Cranberry Sauce

This cranberry sauce recipe is perfect for making the day before Thanksgiving to give it a chance to cool and gel—and besides, that’s one less thing to worry about on the actual big day!  The orange juice and orange zest gives this cranberry sauce a sweet and tangy flavor.  And thanks to the juice, I was able to decrease the sugar by half!

An Easy to Make Thanksgiving Turkey

Instead of making a large turkey your Thanksgiving dinner, consider making two smaller turkeys. With two smaller turkeys, you’ll have twice the meat, bones for broth, and crispy skin to enjoy.

Or if you’re having a smaller gathering, you can make a turkey breast in your Instant Pot and be able to enjoy the broth afterward.

Turkey Bone Broth

Save your turkey bones! You can use them to make turkey bone broth. You can use your homemade bone broth in many other recipes, such as a base for soups, in your traditional foods kitchen.

After you use your Instant Pot, I show you how to give it a deep cleaning in the following video.
