This cranberry sauce practically makes itself! It's quick, and you won't have to keep a constant eye on it. Substitute the water for apple or orange juice, or do half water and half rum! Can be made several days ahead of time, will keep for at least a week in the refrigerator, and can even be frozen if needed.

Copycat Pickle De Gallo
This copycat pickle de gallo is my version of the popular pickle-based pico de gallo, and it is the perfect topping for pulled pork tacos, fish tacos, to serve with barbecued ribs, or as a dip for tortilla chips. This may sound odd, but I like to dress up my cottage cheese with it. The possibilities are endless.

Strawberry Fig Preserves
Everyone thinks these are strawberry preserves. No one has a clue they are made with figs! You can even use different flavors of gelatin like peach or raspberry. Since this recipe makes so little, you could skip the hot water bath and refrigerate the jars of preserves.
