Apple stuffing is a sweet twist on a savory classic! Its fresh apple flavor pairs exceptionally well with hearty Thanksgiving dishes like turkey and sweet potato casserole—or rich pork dishes like ham or grilled pork chops.

I found my stuffing recipe in a magazine years ago and made a few tweaks. I took out the pork sausage, and everyone likes the simpler version that features fruit and veggies. —Jeanne Horn, Duluth, Minnesota
