Serve this colorful, flavorful relish at Thanksgiving in place of the standard cranberry relish that is high in calories and simple carbohydrates. The onions and zinfandel give this dish unexpected sweetness and a fabulous taste. Our holiday relish has zero carbohydrates — and heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids from the chia seeds as a bonus.
