Okay guys, are you ready to be wowed by a recipe? Are you tired of the same ole Thanksgiving recipes that you already know are going to be on the table and are wanting to switch things up this year and bring a little something “extra” to the table that leaves your guests wanting more? Then I have the recipe for you! I took all of the flavors about stuffing that I love and turned it into a rice dish filled with apples, sausage, and brussel sprouts that is going to have you and your guests wanting to make this dish not only for Thanksgiving, but all year long! My brussel sprout, apple, and sausage rice stuffing is going to become everyone’s new favorite Thanksgiving recipe without a doubt and pairs perfectly with any Thanksgiving menu.
Okay we are sixteen days away from Thanksgiving y’all…can you believe it? Are you already menu planning? We will be heading to Louisiana to be with family, but I am always responsible for a few sides to bring to the table. I like to add some green to the mix whenever I can and while green beans are usually a classic, brussel sprouts make for another great vegetable option! My citrus bacon brussel sprouts are going to steal the show in the sides category and will convert even the non-brussel sprouts lovers in your family!
Happy Monday friends! How was your weekend? Our was really good, but it went by so so fast! We did however celebrate the Astros heading to the World Series, which my dad and hubby are headed to today! I am not a huge "watch on tv" sports girl, but I love going to games, so I'm slightly jealous! I think it's partly due to the fact that I use it as an excuse to eat hot dogs and nachos and justify that it is a mandatory thing when one is at any type of sporting event! I will say though, on the opposite end of the spectrum, that anytime Canean is out of town, I love getting to fix girly meals that he wouldn't be thrilled about! I tend to eat way lighter than when he is home for this reason! Recipes like my brussel sprout, apple, and fennel salad with toasted walnuts and parmesan is one that I usually serve as a side, but tonight it's going to be the main meal for me!
