Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Researchers believe that cranberries contain substances that prevent infection-causing bacteria from sticking to the urinary tract walls. However, store-bought cranberry juice is typically all sugar - so make sure to stick with straight cranberries.

Ingredients

1 (12-oz.) package fresh cranberries
1/3 to 1/2 cup sugar
2 to 3 chopped green onions
1 seeded and chopped jalapeño pepper
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Tortilla chips
Garnish: lime wedges

Instructions

Pulse cranberries and sugar in a food processor 3 to 4 times or until coarsely chopped, stopping to scrape down sides. Add chopped green onions, chopped jalapeño pepper, grated fresh ginger, lemon juice, and salt; pulse 3 to 4 times or until chopped. Stir in chopped fresh cilantro. Cover and chill 2 to 24 hours. Serve with tortilla chips. Garnish with lime wedges, if desired.
