Be the envy of your lunch table with a fresh and delicious salad in a jar. Super-easy to make, they're as pretty as they are practical.

Here's what we suggest you do with leftover cranberries

Realizing that the now full-term baby in my belly could come any day now, it was time to prepare something for my husband and midwives to snack on while they alternate helping me in labour. I don’t recall what we gave them during the birth of my son, just over two years ago, but I can assure you that it was nothing that I had made. I thought that the Cranberry-bran muffin recipe would be perfect, since muffins are an any-time-of-day treat. Plus, I figured that freezing a package of them would be great for when I go into labour – we could throw them into the hospital bag, thaw them out in the delivery room and be ready to eat when my helpers got hungry.

I don’t know about you, but this time of year often brings overnight guests to our house. I was happy to discover the pecan cranberry granola - it's easy, healthy, tasty, and the perfect make-ahead breakfast meal to satisfy hungry guests.
