AWESOME SAUSAGE, APPLE AND CRANBERRY STUFFING



Awesome Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing image

This Thanksgiving stuffing is fantastic! It is very flavorful and fresh-tasting. This recipe will stuff a 10-pound turkey (which serves six) plus extra. I replaced the usual pork sausage with much healthier turkey sausage. Other dried fruits may also be used in place of cranberries.

SAUSAGE, DRIED CRANBERRY AND APPLE STUFFING



Sausage, Dried Cranberry and Apple Stuffing image

Recipe from Food TV Dan Smith and Steve McDonagh. I have tried many recipes and this one is my all time favorite. Fresh sage is important. My mother who is a very basic cook said this was so good it was addictive. I used onions instead of leeks as the leeks were super expensive. This is a fresh tasting stuffing. I used mild italian sausage. I am posting in time for Thanksgiving and hope you enjoy it as much as I do. This can be made ahead by 2 days if desired. Please note you may not want to use the entire tablespoon of salt.

TRADER JOE'S APPLE & DRIED CRANBERRY STUFFING



TRADER JOE'S APPLE & DRIED CRANBERRY STUFFING image

Categories     Poultry

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 box trader Joe's Stuffing mix
1 small onion, chopped
1 medium to large granny smith apple, peeled, cored and chopped
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock (more if needed)
1 cup chopped toasted pecans
1/2 cup dried cranberries (can use more)
1 egg or egg white
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • In a frypan, melt butter, saute onion until soft (not brown), about 5 minutes. Add in the bread cubes. Stir in apples, wine, stock, pecans, and cranberries (if the mixture seems too dry add in just a bit more stock, not too much!). Cool to almost room temperature. Add in egg or egg whites. Season well with salt and lots of pepper. Stuff into the turkey.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of apples. Granny Smith and Honeycrisp are good choices because they hold their shape well when cooked. However, you can use any type of apple you like.
  • Peel and core the apples before cooking them. This will help to prevent the apples from becoming mushy.
  • Cook the apples until they are softened but still hold their shape. You don't want the apples to become completely mushy.
  • Add the cranberries to the stuffing mixture at the end of the cooking process. This will help to prevent the cranberries from bursting and becoming too soft.
  • Season the stuffing mixture to taste. You may want to add additional herbs, spices, or salt and pepper.
  • Stuff the stuffing mixture into the turkey or chicken cavity. You can also stuff the stuffing mixture into a baking dish.
  • Bake the stuffing mixture until it is cooked through. The stuffing mixture should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

Conclusion:

Cranberry apple stuffing is a delicious and festive side dish that is perfect for Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect cranberry apple stuffing that will be the hit of your holiday meal.
