I like to make cranberry muffins- basically your favorite blueberry 
muffing recipe, only use the cranberries. I like to add just a tiny bit 
of orange peel also. I also like to make a cranberry cheese bread- it's 
a variation of the usual nut bread (banana, zucchini, etc) with 
cranberries and about a cup of grated sharp cheddar. Really, really yummy!

I also like to put leftover (if there is any) cranberry sauce, warmed, 
over vanilla ice cream.
