Starting with tart, also known as cooking breakfast with cranberries, is an easy and delicious way to incorporate unique flavor, color, and nutrients into recipes. Some simple ways to #StartWithTart include:


  • Stir dried cranberries into oatmeal
  • Simmer cranberry concentrate into syrup
  • Incorporate fresh or frozen cranberries into pancake or waffle batter
  • Top toast and bagels with cranberry sauce
  • Add dried, fresh or frozen cranberries to muffin mixes

Cranberries offer big health benefits in a tiny package, including unique polyphenols not commonly found in other fruits. A serving of fresh or frozen cranberries contains fiber (1.8 g), Vitamin C (7 mg), Vitamin A (31.5 IU) and many other nutrients. Cranberry juice is also an excellent source of Vitamins C and E and a good source of Vitamin K. All forms of cranberry are sodium free, fat free and cholesterol free.
