Recipe Win: Chia Cranberry Sauce with Gojis

As you might know, I am a non-practicing physician, at least for the moment, but with my title comes invitations to many, many lectures on various health topics.  I recently attended a webinar with Dr. Gabrielle Francis of New York, and it was a great refresher on various causes of and treatments for Type II Diabetes mellitus.  As I poked around her website after the lecture, I found an awesome recipe for Chia Cranberry Sauce, and decided to make it for our Friendsgiving celebration this past weekend.

Two things happened: I managed to plan ahead and make the sauce a day in advance, leaving it enough time for the goji berries and chia seeds to plump up nicely (yay!).  I also forgot to plate it during the dinner party.  Ugh.

​Still, the sauce turned out fantastic!  With the abundance of leftovers, we've managed to use most of the cranberry concoction as a spread for turkey sandwiches, a dipping sauce for chocolate truffles, swirled into pumpkin soup, and plopped on top of a cracker and cheese for a snack that's fancy AF. That last one is highly recommended.
