Better Than Your Mom’s Crockpot Stuffing

Better Than Your Mom’s Crockpot Stuffing

This crockpot stuffing recipe takes a simple boxed stuffing mix and turns it into something that tastes completely homemade. Savory sausage, buttery sautéed onion and celery, rich broth, milk and egg make it moist, flavorful and worthy of the Thanksgiving table—all without taking up precious oven space.

This is basically the ultimate doctored-up boxed stuffing: all the ease of a shortcut with the rich, savory flavor of homemade. Browning the sausage and sautéing the vegetables in butter before they hit the slow cooker makes all the difference. Then everything cooks low and slow while you focus on the turkey, rolls and everything else fighting for oven space.

Why You’ll Love This Crockpot Stuffing

  • Boxed stuffing that tastes homemade: Sausage, buttery vegetables, broth, milk and egg completely transform a simple stuffing mix.
  • No dried bread required: You get the flavor and texture of homemade stuffing without cubing and drying loaves of bread.
  • Rich and savory: Browning the sausage and sautéing the onion and celery in butter builds flavor before anything hits the slow cooker.
  • Saves precious oven space: The entire stuffing cooks in the crockpot while your turkey, rolls and casseroles take over the oven.
  • Perfect for the holidays: Make it for Thanksgiving or Christmas, then keep it warm right in the slow cooker until dinner.

Ingredients You’ll Need

This stuffing comes together with simple, familiar ingredients that work together to create something special.

  • Ground sausage: Adds savory flavor, richness and plenty of seasoning. We love it for making boxed stuffing taste homemade.
  • Celery: Adds a little texture and that classic savory stuffing flavor.
  • Onion: Sautéed in butter until tender to create a sweet, flavorful base.
  • Butter: Adds richness and gives the vegetables and stuffing that essential buttery flavor.
  • Better Than Bouillon + hot water: Creates a deeply flavored chicken broth without opening a carton. Regular chicken broth works too.
  • Milk: Adds moisture and richness for a softer, more luxurious stuffing.
  • Egg: Binds everything together and gives the stuffing structure as it cooks.
  • Stuffing mix: The shortcut that makes this recipe so easy. We love Kinder’s stuffing mix for its seasoning and texture, but another similar dry stuffing mix will work.

Simple ingredients, big results. Measurements can be found in the recipe card below.

How to Make Crockp

Cabbage Stir Fry

Tender cabbage, savory ground beef, and a spicy, garlicky sauce make this Cabbage Stir Fry an instant favorite. Made with fresh vegetables and loaded with flavor, this 30-minute meal is an easy alternative to Chinese takeout.

Stir fries are a frequent fixture of my weekly dinner menus and stir fry noodles with chicken and vegetables is another one I make often. This week, since I had ground beef in the freezer, I switched things up and made a beefy cabbage version.

Cabbage Stir Fry

Similar to my egg roll skillet and sausage egg roll in a bowl, this has the ground meat, shredded cabbage, onion, and garlic you’d find inside a typical egg roll, and I’ve kicked up the flavor here with the punch of chili paste.

I expected the beef to be my favorite part of this stir fry. And as much as I enjoyed the savory meat, it’s the cabbage that kept me coming back for more. Cabbage is inexpensive and versatile, and when it’s sliced into noodle-like ribbons here, it’s perfect for lapping up all that incredible sauce.

I’m always amazed by how easy it is to turn an ordinary vegetable into a crave-worthy dish with just a few simple steps. I can’t wait for you to try this one.

Thanksgiving Quesadilla

Web Admin 0 30 Article rating: No rating

Oh, my friends. I am very excited to share this with you today. I dreamed up this quesadilla many years ago and finally got around to making it and taking photos of it last fall. And let me tell you, it fulfills every food fantasy I had and then some.

quesadilla filled with Thanksgiving sides and turkey too

I made this quesadilla for lunch the day after Thanksgiving. And then I made it again for dinner for myself and for the rest of the family too. And then? I made it again on Saturday AND on Sunday. Yep, I did that. And I will happily be making this quesadilla again, on repeat, for as long as the Thanksgiving sides last this year.

I have made a lot of quesadillas. But, I am telling you that this Thanksgiving quesadilla is officially my favorite way to use the Thanksgiving leftovers, alongside my more traditional turkey quesadilla when those leftovers finally start running out.

Thanksgiving Quesadilla

From start to finish, this quesadilla only takes ten minutes to make. It’s built from leftovers, so it’s easy to adapt on the fly. So, don’t worry if you don’t have all the ingredients. Just use what you have.

I don’t even care if I sound crazy. I’ve been raving to all of my brothers and sisters, friends and strangers at the grocery store even, about this way to use up leftovers ever since I first landed on it, almost two years ago. A little bit of this and a little bit of that add up to whole lot of deliciousness!
