    I would never of thought to even try to make this. You made it sound so simple I thought no way would this be good. Well I made it today and I will never buy canned again. It was so fun watching the berries pop and then the sauce thicken up. My husband hates the sauce out of the can but loved this. Thank you so much for sharing 🥰
