Easy Turkey Stuffing Casserole

This post is sponsored by Tony Chachere’s, but all opinions are 100% my own.

If you’re looking for a cozy, no-fuss meal to use up your Thanksgiving leftovers, this Turkey Stuffing Casserole is the perfect way to give those leftovers new life. I partnered with my friends at Tony Chachere’s to create this recipe using one of my favorite products, their Cornbread Stuffing Mix, that makes this dish so easy to whip up. It’s got everything you love about those nostalgic holiday flavors all wrapped up into one cozy dish. Even better? This casserole also makes a great main dish option for a smaller Thanksgiving gathering. You get all of the best flavors of the holiday, tender turkey, savory stuffing (my favorite part), and the smells of Thanksgiving all wrapped up into one easy casserole.

One of my favorite gift ideas to give during the holiday season is homemade goodies. There are so many options of sweet treats to make, but buckeyes are a classic homemade sweet treat that my mom has made during the holidays for as long as I can remember. I added my own twist on this recipe by adding a little flaky salt on top to balance out the richness of the buckeyes to make them even more irresistible. This recipe for salted buckeyes is one that you are going to want to make every single year.
