Sausage, Sweet Potato & Apple Paleo Thanksgiving StuffingI have the whole apartment to myself this week! Well, more like the dogs and I… They make great company. C is off to my home state of NJ doing his work thang all week. Which means I made a giant dish of stuffing all for myself. That’s okay. It’s so good that I don’t mind eating it for the next 4 days. Might only last 3 days actually…

By the way, “stuffing” is a misnomer. This recipe is for a dressing. I’ve successfully cooked 3 turkeys in my life and never have I cooked anything inside one. I have no desire to stuff this inside anything besides my belly. But whatever, who says “dressing” anyway? Only weirdos. Sorry if you’re a weirdo. I still like you anyway.

Sausage, Sweet Potato & Apple Paleo Thanksgiving StuffingThere’s a bunch of things cooked separately for this recipe, and then they are all cooked together. I know, sounds really dumb and pointless. But just trust, it’s not. All that work yields to a perfect mixture of delicious textures.

This is a perfect dish to prepare ahead of time up to right before the step you put everything in the oven. Cover and put in the fridge a day or 2 before Thanksgiving and bake on the big day. One less thing to worry about while getting ready for the guests and about to have a nervous breakdown. Don’t you love hosting Thanksgiving? Sausage, Sweet Potato & Apple Paleo Thanksgiving Stuffing
