Small Batch Leftover Stuffing Muffins
Don't let the “stuffing” deter you, but if you're concerned this works equally as well with dressing. Serve with some leftover cranberry sauce if desired The reason this works well is because the flavors are coming from the stuffing. I recommend using a stuffing which has sausage, onions, and celery in the ingredients.
