Happy Thanksgiving Day today! I love cooking and eating Thanksgiving! (obviously) :p
Cranberry sauce is the easiest Thanksgiving recipe to make, I had never had it made from real cranberries before I made it a few years ago, and now I will never use that jelly can shaped cranberry sauce again.
Cranberry sauce: tart and sweet and delicious!

2 cups-ish (1 bag) cranberries, 1/2 cup apple or orange juice- I used apple cider this year, 1/2 cup honey,
1/2 an orange zested, 1/2 cup extra addition- this year I used 1 orange (pineapple/orange/apple chunks or marshmallows or whatever may strike your fancy).
Mix the cranberries, juice and honey in a medium sauce pan. Cook on med-low heat, stirring frequently, until the cranberries pop.

Continue cooking and popping for a minute (or so, I usually continue cooking for a few more minutes). Remove from heat. Stir in orange zest and chunks of extra goodness. Let cool at room temp, then refrigerate or can.
I also so far have made:
Pumpkin Pie: with rice milk and maple syrup instead of sweetened condensed milk

Rosemary flat bread: made with fresh rosemary, which we will eat, and also use for stuffing- SO good!
