I’m not even gonna beat around the bush with some cutesy post intro today:
This is the BEST STUFFING you will ever eat in your ENTIRE LIFE.
It’s better than apple raisin easy gluten free stuffing and for sure better than cauliflower low carb paleo vegan stuffing because, well, CARBS.
Every single person who has tried it agrees (read the reviews) and my taste buds look forward to it EVERY single year.
It’s probably SO GOOD because it’s my Grandma’s recipe, which means it comes with LOADS of love….and deliciousness.
Why this is the BEST Thanksgiving Side Dish
When we’re talking about Thanksgiving, FOOD definitely comes to mind. Whatever I’m going to cook up for my family’s holiday dinner has to be delicious, comforting and there are a few MUST HAVES on my list to serve on my Thanksgiving table. First of all, you’ll need a big ol’ turkey, and we simply can’t forget some cauliflower mashed potatoes. BUT one of my favorite sides that is non-negotiable is stuffing- not just any kind of stuffing, but my grandma’s gluten free stuffing recipe! It’s the best of the best because it doesn’t cut carbs, is full of savory goodness, and the spices just finish it off into the most comforting and satisfying side dish! You are going to LOVE it!
It’s a real ailment guys. Web MD said so.

Tips for making the BEST Gluten Free Stuffing
Ok guys, you know me- I’m ALWAYS on the hunt for little tips and tricks in the kitchen! A good recipe is made BETTER with a few simple tricks of the trade. Here are a couple for this stuffing recipe:
Cut the veggies small: When preparing the onions and celery to cook, I recommend chopping them up in a food processer, and making sure they are cut in very small pieces. This way, you’ll be sure to have their flavor incorporated in every bite of stuffing, rather than chunks here and there.
Don’t skip the parsley: Sure, parsley is usually optional for recipes and often seen as “just a garnish”, but the flavor really adds to this stuffing recipe! I recommend adding it every time!
Serving Suggestions
I like my table FULL of all the most delicious, flavorful dishes at Thanksgiving. Pair this stuffing with a golden brown turkey, some roasted pumpkin with maple syrup, red skin mashed potatoes, and finish things off with a couple of gluten free sweet potato pie bars for dessert!

Ingredients
3 Tbsp Olive Oil
2 Cups Onion finely chopped
2 Cups Celery finely chopped
1/4 Cup Garlic minced
14 slices Gluten Free White Sandwich Bread cut into large cubes*
1 2/3 Cup Chicken broth ** NOT reduced sodium
4 tsps Fresh parsley minced + additional for garnish
1 tsp Poultry seasoning
1/2 tsp Sage powder
Pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and spray a casserole dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium/high heat. Add in the chopped onion, celery and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and soft, about 8-10 minutes
Place the cut bread cubes into a large mixing bowl, and add in the cooked onion mixture. Toss to mix well and evenly coat the bread in the onion mixture.
Pour the chicken broth over the cubes and gently mix until they’re evenly moistened.
Add in the fresh parsley, poultry seasoning, sage powder and a few pinches of pepper and gently toss to mix the spices evenly among the bread cubes. Transfer to the prepared casserole dish.
Bake until the top of the stuffing is lightly crisp and golden brown, about 50-60 minutes.
Garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired and DEVOUR!
Notes
* I cut each slice into 9 pieces, so 2 slices across each bread slice each way
**I do typically prefer using reduced-sodium broth, but not here. Yes, it has a lot of sodium, but it gives it the FLAVAH. It’s Thanksgiving, live a little. 🙂
