  • 2 tablespoons fresh orange juice

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a food processor, pulse the cranberries, green onions, jalapenos, and cilantro until they are coarsely chopped. Be careful not to over-process; you want small, even pieces.
  2. Transfer the mixture to a medium bowl. Stir in the orange juice, orange zest, sugar, and salt. Mix thoroughly to combine. Cover and chill the mixture for 1 hour, up to overnight.
  3. When ready, add the cream cheese to a medium bowl. Using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Mix in the sour cream.
  4. Using a slotted spoon, scoop the cranberry mixture out of the bowl and add it to the cream cheese and sour cream mixture. Stir to combine.
  5. Garnish with cranberries and cilantro. Serve with crackers, chips, or toasted baguette slices.
