This was soooo good with braised pork chops and fresh green beans. I used Craisins instead of fresh cranberries and fresh orange zest instead of orange rind. It was delicious.

Where are you Tonkcats? I love your recipes and this one was no exception, I loved it! .Instead of fresh cranberries I used some left over brandied cranberries and cut back on the sugar. The orange rind gives a nice subtle flavor. Excellent recipe thanks Tonkcats
