Holiday Power Breakfast

Cranberry sauce doesn’t have to be just for Thanksgiving dinner. Spoon it over yogurt for a fantastic breakfast chock full of stuff that’s good for you. It's not just a great way to use up turkey dinner leftovers, it’s a reason to make a whole new batch!


Yogurt with Cranberry Sauce (8 servings)
  • 12 oz. fresh cranberries, rinsed
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla
  • ½ cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • ½ cup water
  • Plain, non-fat Greek yogurt
  1. Combine the cranberries, sugar, vanilla, orange juice, and water in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until thick, about 20 minutes. Cool; it will continue to thicken as it cools.
  2. Spoon cranberry sauce over yogurt.
