Thumbs up Idea for Cranberry Sauce ... duh!

I found what sounds like a good and easy recipe for low carb cranberry sauce; it calls for sugar free cranberry jello to keep it low carb. The OP wrote that SF cranberry jello was widely available "this time of year," but I've been unable to find it anywhere, even online. So ... thunk!... it finally occurred to me that I could use unflavored gelatin and SF cranberry juice, both of which are easy to find. Here's the recipe -- I don't have the OP's name, unfortunately.
Cranberry Sauce A La Magic
1 package fresh or frozen cranberries

1 small package sugar free cranberry Jell-O

water

1/2 teaspoon orange extract

1/2 teaspoon dry stevia or artificial sweetener (to taste)

In a saucepan, cook the cranberries in about 1/4 cup of water until they pop. Lightly mash them with the back of a wooden spoon or with a potato masher. Add the stevia or other artificial sweetener and the orange extract. Make the Jell-O according to the package directions, but with just one cup of boiling water and 3/4 cup of cold water. Stir the prepared Jell-O into the cooked cranberry pulp and chill until set. Makes 1 pint.
