Thanksgiving Cranberry And Sausage Stuffing Muffins Recipe

Have you planned your Thanksgiving menu yet? My daughter and I got the cookbooks and recipes down from the shelf this weekend. We had fun looking through so many treasured recipes from my mom and my grandmother.

If I close my eyes, I can hear the clanking of dishes in the kitchen and the smell of delicious food cooking. Little did I know those memories would inspire me to be the foodie I am today!

As a kid, mom served sausage and herb stuffing for the holidays. This year, I updated her recipe and I created these delicious Cranberry And Sausage Herb Stuffing Muffins.

Mom had many recipes we looked forward to devouring every holiday! I love that my foodie mom encourage her kids to be foodies as well! This year, I wanted to find a new recipe to serve my family this holiday season.

We already loved mom’s classic stuffing recipe, so I knew the family would love this Thanksgiving Cranberry And Sausage Stuffing Muffins Recipe.

We all love the tartness of cranberries. I thought those would be a great balance to the spice of the sausage. When I found stove top herb stuffing at the grocery store, my recipe came together.

Henry loves it when I make recipes in muffin tins. He does not like turkey, so I make my Meatloaf Muffins topped with Mashed Potatoes. For a healthier option, I make them with ground turkey.

When you are making your stuffing, you may want to use chicken stock to make them even more flavorful. I know your family is going to love this recipe as much as my does! From my family to yours…Happy Holidays!

    We tend to use stuffing mix for our dinners. What I like about this recipe is that it’s easy and it takes that mix to a new level. Also I love that it portions out the stuffing. Holidays are all about excess and I would like to have more reasonable portions.

    I just love sausage and stuffing together and add in some cranberries and it sounds like a hit my family would so enjoy. My son has to eat gluten free but I can easily convert the recipe to gf products to make some for him too. I will be pinning this for the holidays to make it for them.
