If you've got a bag of fresh (or frozen) cranberries around that you're looking for a tasty way to use, I've got you covered! From smoothies to sandwiches and more, these recipes highlight the incredible flavor of this underrated berry.
Cranberries are one of those flavors that can take some getting used to.
But once you embrace their sourness, you can appreciate the depth of flavor that they add to all sorts of recipes.

So if you're in need of some inspiration, here are 5 sweet and savory ways that I love to use them!
