Cranberry Pecan Pie

Cranberries are native to North America, growing mostly in the
northeast corner of the United States. The first cultivated
cranberries were selected from wild bushes because they matured
early in the season, making them available for Thanksgiving.

Scientists now believe that cranberries contain a compound that
helps prevent urinary tract infections and gum disease, and they
are investigating the effect of cranberries on cardiovascular
disease.

This pie made of cranberries and pecans is a perfect seasonal treat.
