Gluten Free Butternut Squash Cranberry Cornbread Stuffing

Although technically “Thanksgiving Week”on the blog ended last week, I had to throw in one more bonus Thanksgiving recipe before the big dinner!

And what a bonus it is! If you’ve been looking for the perfect gluten free stuffing recipe, look no further!

Wonderbag Slow Cooked Gluten Free Cornbread Stuffing Recipe

I slow cooked this stuffing in the Wonderbag, making it the perfect dish to prepare first thing on Thanksgiving morning, then put it in the bag, set it aside and let it slow cook all day.

This also saves valuable oven space for things like Garlic Herb Bacon Wrapped Turkey Breast, Rosemary Blue Cheese Mashed Potatoes and Portobello Mushroom Brussels Sprout Casserole!
