This is a delicious fruit-filled version of cranberry sauce. The pomegranate is cooked separately to facilitate seed removal, then both parts are combined to finish cooking. It's wonderful as an accompaniment for poultry, and can be made into a lovely trifle-type dessert with vanilla pudding and pound cake.

Use fresh figs to add some sweetness to these balsamic braised pork tenderloins. Bonus: There is no added sugar! The dish starts on the stove top and finishes in the oven, freeing you up for other tasks. We like this dish with roasted potatoes that let the oven do double duty. A simple green salad completes the meal.
