And we are so excited to share this easy Stuffing Muffin recipe with all of you that can be enjoyed by those on program and those not on program. This quick and easy recipe will have you wanting to make stuffing year round! By making it in a muffin pan, every serving has those perfect crunchy edges with a moist buttery center. Plus the best part it’s so easy to get your perfect program portion. Mix in a serving of shredded chicken or even some leftover turkey to turn this into a stand-alone dish.
