Expert Tips

Leftover Cranberry Pistachio Sauce will keep for 1 week covered in the refrigerator. You can also fill a decorative jar with sauce to give as a hostess or holiday gift.

For an easy and festive appetizer, top cream cheese with chilled Cranberry Pistachio Sauce. Sprinkle with chopped pistachios and serve with crackers.

    Christmas Eve dinner for our gathering. Loved it. Sauce is awesome and will definitely be topping some warmed brie cheese with leftovers.

    My Fiance and I tried this about a week ago, and it was absolutely delicious. There is some prep time included, especially since we could not find pre chopped pistashios. It was the first meal in a while that we did not have left overs (we did half the recipe for just the two of us).
