Rework your cranberry sauce

Holiday feasting is all about enjoying the leftovers. Once the cooking is done, the stress of hosting has faded, and the flavors have had a chance to deepen, that's when the real fun begins. As long as you store your food properly after your guests leave, there's no reason you can't keep the celebration going. Transform leftover mashed potatoes into delicious loaded potato balls, blend leftover gravy into soups, or take the classic approach and layer everything into a delightful sweet and savory sandwich.
You can always freeze any extra cranberry sauce (homemade varieties freeze particularly well), but for a tasty autumn treat, consider incorporating it into your favorite muffin recipe. Mix in any leftover store-bought or homemade cranberries to add a flavorful twist. This cranberry trick works best with whole-berry sauce rather than jellied, as the texture blends more easily into the batter. You can enhance the tartness of the berries with citrus, nuts, dark chocolate, or spices like cinnamon and nutmeg for a seasonal delight.
