I am trying my best to come up with something interesting to say but the truth of the matter is…
I AM SICK! I have a birthday to be healthy for and then I have a special trip this weekend with a certain someone that I count and thank my lucky stars every day for. I must get better–I MUST! (A big thank you to all of you on Facebook who have given me some great tips on feeling better–you guys are awesome!)
So while I am coughing my brains out, please enjoy the pictures of this lovely gluten-free and vegan Thanksgiving stuffing. Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a date with a late morning nap.
Don’t mind me, go ahead and get to Gluten-Free Thanksgiving Stuffing-making:

What brand of gluten free bread do you use my dear? I’ve tried my hand at baking my own and it turned out like a brick. All the brands I saw at the store had egg. 🙁

There is a gluten and dairy free bakery around where I live that happens to have some egg free options as well. That is where I get mine. Not helpful for you, I know… sorry friend 🙁

Ener-G makes a few gluten free, dairy free, egg free options: a tapioca loaf, or white and brown rice loaves. I find them at Whole Foods. Hope that helps!
Cara
This GREATLY helps, Kristyn! Thank you for the heads up. I had no idea that Ener-G had egg-free options…

Ooh, I love stuffing! Quick question though, looks like fresh cranberries in your pictures and the recipes says dried?
Feel better quick, I swear by Coldeeze and hot tea.
