This cranberry sauce was fantastic. When cooked the cranberry sauce had a beautiful bright color. It was a perfect addition to the dinner table, and it was very quick and simple to make. Everyone in my family loved it.

At Thanksgiving, my 70 year old father said this was "just like mom used to make". It doesn't get any better than that!

I made this recipe this Thanksgiving, but changed it slightly. I added about 1 tsp grated orange rind and after the berrys were cooked down I added about 1/8 cup of Grand Marinier. Not too many of my family like cranberries in any shape for form, but my nephew ( 13 years old ) loved it and asked to take some home. I loved it and even put it on top of my oatmeal the next morning. The juice was wonderful. I would make it again.

This recipe was really tasty! I cooked it until most of the cranberries popped, and mashed it up a bit and left them in, and it was fantastic! Thank you :)

I have been making this recipe for years-always a favorite at every Thanksgiving dinner. It's really best tasting if you use fresh orange juice! I love it spread on my turkey sandwiches the next day, mixed with some mayonnaise.

Mmmmm this is the best cranberry sauce! I LOVE it, so simple, so good! I just made it (a couple days early) for Thanksgiving and kept having little tastes and it is wonderful! Last year I made the Cranberry Sauce Extraordinaire from this site and I like this so much better, plus it's a lot easier to prepare. It's just perfect! I hope it sets up okay in the fridge although I like it more of a sauce consistancy like it is right now. This is the best, I won't try another cranberry sauce recipe again, maybe tweak this one with a little cinnamon or brown sugar but really, it's great just the way it's written.

Doesn't get much easier than this. I make this every year for Thanksgiving, and each year I have to make more...it disappears so quickly. I have modified slightly by adding 1/2 orange juice and 1/2 water, or 1/2 orange juice and 1/2 white wine, but always top it with grated orange zest and lemon peel curls to make it sparkle.
