Recipe submitted by DaVita dietitian Jennifer from Virginia.

Portions: 8

Serving size: 1 ounce Brie and 1 tablespoon chutney

Ingredients

  • one 12-ounce bag fresh cranberries
  • 1/3 cup water
  • 1/2 cup sugar (substitute Splenda® granular for diabetics)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar (substitute Splenda® brown sugar blend for diabetics)1 teaspoon dry mustard 1 teaspoon cloves
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon 1 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon allspice
  • one 8-ounce wheel of Brie cheese
  • a variety of crackers

Preparation

  1. Wash and drain fresh cranberries.
