I'm attempting this recipe this year:
Butternut Squash & Cornbread Stuffing Muffins. I would love something with fruit in it (apples or cranberries maybe) but my husband hates cooked fruit. I love butternut squash, though, and it seems like a sneaky way to add some vegetables. Plus the muffin concept will be good for portability since I'm not hosting.
And for me it's always stuffing. Dressing goes on salad.
When I cook a whole bird, it gets stuffed with vegetables, fruits, and herbs to add flavor without adding health risks. A.K.A. because Alton Brown said so. Besides, how could you experiment with cute little stuffing muffins if you cook it inside the bird?
