Healthy Sugared Cranberries
I have always loved sweet-tart foods and these little guys are a perfect balance. Not too sweet, not too tart….just right. With only two ingredients you can’t go wrong. Plus, sugared cranberries are also a great hostess gift to bring to your holiday parties. They look so cute in a decorative box.
