Your guests will appreciate this spin on traditional stuffing. It's a tart, side dish that will complement the rest of the flavors in your Thanksgiving meal. You can prepare the stuffing the day before Thanksgiving until the point of baking it and simply finish cooking it while the turkey’s roasting. In fact, it’s so easy you could make anytime you're entertaining during the fall season and pair it with roasted pork instead. If you like cranberries to on the sweeter side, try tossing the cooked cranberries with your favorite zero-calorie sweetener. We loved the nostalgic aroma sage lends but you could pump up the herbal notes by tossing in some chopped fresh rosemary and thyme too.
