This week our Gluten Free Meal Plan will include some tried and true favorites. My boy have busy Mondays and Tuesdays so I often rely on dishes I know how to easily execute and I know will always turn out. One of our favorites is baked ham with sweet potatoes and cranberry sauce.

We LOVE homemade cranberry sauce every fall and winter. My boys specifically request I make mine (which is really very simple and pure) for both Thanksgiving and Christmas, no matter where we are celebrating. I tend to purchase large bags of cranberries from places like Costco and then take a free Sunday to make and can the sauce. That way we have cranberry sauce throughout the season.
Homemade Cranberry Sauce
1 Cup water
1/2 Cup sugar (organic)
1/2 Cup brown sugar
12 oz package of cranberries, washed
In a large saucepan bring water and sugar to a boil. Add cranberries and bring back to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Stirring occasionally so the mixture does not burn. Allow to cool and refrigerate until ready to serve OR can while still piping hot. This recipe is based on the classic Ocean Spray recipe
