Kaffir Lime & Jalapeno Cranberry Sauce

Traditional cranberry sauce gets a savory twist with bright lime and a kick of jalapeno in this Kaffir Lime & Jalapeno Cranberry Sauce...

Is Thanksgiving really next week?? It feels like just last week that I was getting the littlest all dressed up in her Anna costume to go out trick or treating, and now I am talking turkey with you all. But this is how it is every year, right? Once Halloween is done and over it, the holiday season seems to come at us at lighting speed. 

If you haven't even had a chance to think about Thanksgiving yet let alone plan that dinner menu, then you all are going to really love today's post. Because I am going to let you all in on a little secret on how to make Thanksgiving dinner super easy this year- with a little help from my friends at Urban Accents. ;)

You all probably remember me talking about Urban Accents last month when I shared their recipe for Salted Caramel Apples, and they gave one of you all a party pack for Halloween. Well now my friends at Urban Accents want to help one of you out with that Thanksgiving dinner, so I have teamed up with them for another fun giveaway for my readers. 

We will get to that giveaway in a just few minutes, but let's first chat a little about this Kaffir Lime & Jalapeno Cranberry Sauce, k? With just a handful of ingredients and less than 30 minutes, you can transform a bag of fresh cranberries into a cranberry sauce that will wow them this Thanksgiving. 

If you typically shy away from cranberry sauce because of its sweetness, then you are going to love this more savory version. Plus, you just can't beat the little kick of heat from the jalapeno...

I have to admit that for years the thought of trying to make homemade caramel apples at home sort of scared me. Fresh apples covered in gooey caramel seems easy enough, but it is the actual caramel making part of it that left me hesitant. I am sort of candy making challenged. ;) So when Urban Accents reached out to me to try their new Scary Salted Caramel Apple Kit, I was all for it. A kit that took most of the caramel apple making guesswork out of the equation? Yes, please! Sign me up.

It just so happens that I have a lot of apples from our apple picking adventure weekend before last that I need to put to tasty use soon, so I set to work right away whipping up these easy and delicious salted caramel apples. The kit includes the caramel mix, the wooden sticks, and sea salt for sprinkling. You just need to pick up a few ingredients from the grocery store to make these Scary Salted Caramel Apples happen in your kitchen...
