It’s hard to believe that it’s Thanksgiving week! I don’t know about you, but my year has just flown by at an alarming rate. It seems like just yesterday I was slaving over last years holiday meal. So what’s on your menu for this Thanksgiving? I can almost bet you’ll have stuffing… am I right? I know it’s certainly a staple in our house. With all of the many involved recipes that usually end up on the table, I’m happy to make the load a little easier with this Savory Sausage Stuffing. Want to know my shortcut? Rhodes Bread! It really makes pulling this together a cinch and when you pull this stuffing out of the oven on turkey day, you’ll have to ward off everyone until the complete meal is ready. It smells AMAZING!
Not only did I participate in A Blogger Thanksgiving last year, I also had A Tried and Tasty Thanksgiving with everything you’re heart desired. It was the last year my family was all on the same state and it was nice to to all out for everyone to make it special. So what’s your favorite side dish? I find the general consensus with stuffing is that you either love it or you don’t. Thankfully I’m on the side that loves it, and I really LOVED this recipe!

Thank you so much! Love a good stuffing recipe!
This looks so good, Yvonne! I never make homemade stuffing although I always want to. But my son would riot- he loves his Stove Top, lol! ;) It is the only thing on the Thanksgiving dinner menu that he asks for each year- how can I say no? But this stuffing is beautiful and looks so delicious!
Im thankful you love stuffing because this recipe looks killer! Yum
Yum! this looks so good. Sausage sounds really good in it too. I need to try it soon.
I’ve never done a stuffing with sausage but I know my guys would love it. This looks so good!
Yvonne
It’s a great addition, you should switch things up one of these times you make stuffing!
Stuffing is probably my favorite part of the entire meal! This looks delicious!
