A group of authors and I are doing a Holiday Romance and Recipe blog exchange so I thought what better way to start than with a recipe that includes cranberry shared by Linda McLaughlin/Lyndi Lamont....

The holidays are almost upon us, which means lots of
opportunities to overeat! Holiday potlucks are a staple of the season, and if
you’re looking for an easy recipe, I have one to share. Like me, it’s a little
sweet and a little tart, fairly low-calorie, dairy free, nut free and gluten
free. (Unless you doctor it up, that is.)
Lyndi's
Cranberry-Blueberry Delight
Ingredients:
1 14 oz. can of Whole Berry Cranberry Sauce
1 package of fresh small blueberries (about 4 oz.)
1 cup of golden raisins
Mix, chill and serve. That's it!
The recipe serves 8-10 ladies. (The attached photo doesn't
reflect the full recipe. It's what is left over after a couple of days of
snacking on it.) I’ve also spread it on turkey sandwiches in lieu of regular
cranberry sauce.
Since it's so simple, it's easy to experiment. Add nuts for
crunch or sweeten to taste, if it's too tart. I'm thinking about adding some of
those little marshmallows next time for color and sweetness.
And if you’re looking for a bargain boxed set for holiday
reading, may I suggest Hearts and Heroes?

What do a cowboy, a biker, a pilot, a P.I. and a race-car
driver have in common? They are the heroes of the new Hearts and Heroes
Boxed Set of Five Contemporary Romances.

Pamela, thanks so much for sharing my boxed set and recipe on Thanksgiving Day.
Hi Tanya! I remember you from OCC.
Have a wonderful day, everyone.
Oh, I just wanted to point out that our boxed set is sensual romance, not hot erotic romance.
So sorry I'm late. Crazy day yesterday. The recipe sounds yummy, and what a great deal on the boxed set! Best wishes to you!
