The family calls it “Cranberry Bliss.” It’s so simple, but it looks like you spent hours on it!

Cranberry sauce is one of those classic dishes that brings the holiday season to mind. Growing up in the Midwest, it was a staple on our Thanksgiving table, and now that I’m juggling a busy career with my love of cooking, I’ve found a way to make it simple yet delicious. This 3-ingredient cranberry sauce is perfect for those of us who want to make something homemade without spending hours in the kitchen. It’s tangy, sweet, and adds a nice pop of color to any meal.
This cranberry sauce pairs wonderfully with roast turkey or chicken, but it’s also fantastic as a spread on leftover sandwiches. For a complete holiday spread, serve it with mashed potatoes, stuffing, and green bean casserole. The tartness of the cranberries perfectly complements the rich flavors of these classic sides.
