Do you say stuffing or dressing?
Technically this recipe is a dressing because we’re not actually stuffing anything with it.
I’m calling it a stuffing anyway though because you absolutely could take this dish from a side to the main event.
WHile this stuffing is completely delicious on its own, it would also be wonderful piled onto roasted squash, such as acorn or butternut with more roasted veggies on the side!

- Non-stick cooking spray
- 1/2 cup uncooked wild rice
