Ingredients

10 servings
  • 2 package s Arla Original Cream Cheese
  • 1 batch cranberry sauce (see below*)
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate arils**
  • 1 small jalapeño, cored and finely-diced
  • 1/2 cup thinly-sliced green onions
  • crackers, for dipping
  • 12 ounces fresh cranberries
  • 1/2 cup orange juice
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar (or your desired type of sweetener)

Steps

  1. Spread the cream cheese in a single layer in a large serving bowl or plate.

  2. Spread the cranberry sauce on top of the cream cheese in a single layer, followed by the pomegranate arils, diced jalapeño, and green onions.

  3. Serve immediately, with crackers for dipping.

  4. Add cranberries, orange juice, water and sugar to a medium saucepan, and stir to combine. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 10 minutes or until most of the cranberries have popped.

  5. Remove from heat.  Chill the cranberry sauce in a sealed container in the refrigerator until completely chilled, about 2 hours.  (Or you can make the cranberry sauce up to 3 days in advance.)
