22 Downright Delicious Thanksgiving Stuffing Recipes
We can all agree: No Thanksgiving meal is complete without stuffing. Although we love the down-home-style sausage-and-bread version our grandma’s been cookin’ up for decades, we’re looking to switch things up this year. Think chorizo cornbread stuffing, pancetta and sage stuffin’ muffins and chestnut-leek stuffing. We’re drooling just thinking about these non-traditional options. Don’t worry, we’ve included some classics, too.
