I have been told by fellow writers that Stuffing is the most popular dish for thanksgiving. This is a gluten-free version that will have you falling in love from presentation to taste. You can prep ahead of time and bake just two hours before its time to eat. You can watch my segment making this dish on Fox4 kc.
Home made Cranberry Sauce is always a perfect side for thanksgiving.
