    sugar free vanilla cranberry sauce with holiday dinnerCranberry sauce is one of those holiday side dishes that people either find absolutely necessary or they could live without. I fall into the former category. I love that sweet and tangy flavor the cranberries provide when I bite into my Thanksgiving turkey. And this cranberry sauce has hints of vanilla in it. Vanilla pairs very well next to savory dishes. It won’t overpower the turkey. Vanilla can enhance the seasonings in the poultry and gravy.These cranberries are sugar free as well so you can safely enjoy them and stay low carb or keto at the holiday dinner table.
