Best Awesome Sausage Apple And Cranberry Stuffing Recipes

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.
