    • Reviews

  • “I made this recipe with dried apricots instead of figs, and it was great. Definitely give this recipe a try, not very hard and very good with meatballs or poultry.”

  • “I like this a lot. I have been doing this for a while with many variations. My favorite, which we used this year, is to use granny smith apples in place of oranges. It is definitely better the second day, and I waited until then to add the nuts.”

  • “This is so easy, but tasty.I did not separate membranes from oranges, as suggested. I simply cut the oranges into eights, removed the seeds, and then removed the orange from the peeling.Also, I used chopped pecans rather than walnuts.And I used only 1/2 cup sugar and 1/2 cup Splenda.It was plenty sweet. I hope you will try this oh-so-easy and delicious recipe!”
