Sprouts Farmers Market carries some of my favorite ingredients used in this stuffing, like frozen organic riced cauliflower, organic raisins (with no added oils or sugar), organic apricot preserves and gluten free bread!
If you haven't tried riced cauliflower before, it's a great alternative to rice if you can't have grains. It's also just simply delicious! My family uses it almost weekly to add to soups andstir frys.
Cauliflower is a great source of vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, pantothenic acidand vitamin B6. It's also a good source of choline, fiber, omega-3 fatty acids, manganese, phosphorusand biotin.
Riced cauliflower is a lovely side dish for any meal and it's also SO good packed in stuffing.
Organic produce is overflowing in this buttery gluten free fruity riced cauliflower stuffing.
Sprouts Farmers Market has a great selection of organic produce, frozen organic produce and organic dried fruit. I love that their raisins are not only organic, but they don't have anything added - no unhealthy oils or sugar, just pure raisins.
