Fruity Compote

1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 cups water
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and thinly slivered
1 cup dried fruit mix
2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries
1 orange, peeled and sectioned
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and cut into small,
thin wedges.

In large saucepan, combine sugar, water and ginger. Bring to a boil over high
heat. Add dried fruit mix. Bring back to a boil and immediately reduce heat to
low simmer. Cook, uncovered, until fruit is not quite tender, about 5 minutes.
Add cranberries and simmer, stirring occasionally, until cranberries pop. Stir
