Trader Joe's Cornbread Stuffing with Roasted Apples, Dried Cranberries and Savory Herbs

Of all the many things you might find at a Thanksgiving Dinner spread, I think I like stuffing most of all. I mean, ideally, you're never really eating stuffing all by itself. You're gonna have turkey, mashed potatoes, and cranberry sauce to go with it. But I mean, if I had to pick just one item from Turkey Day that's my favorite, it's stuffing. I am a carbivore, after all.

We've seen plenty of interesting stuffing offerings from Trader Joe's throughout the years. We've seen multiple gluten free offerings including a mix...not to mention a riced cauliflower stuffing that's not around anymore. It was...just okay.

There's a cornbread stuffing mix that you make yourself. We like that one. Also, there used to be a cornbread stuffing that came pre-mixed with chicken sausage in it. That one was so-so, but I don't think it's available this year anyway. Trader Joe's even sells stuffing-flavored potato chips. Those things are awesome. And we did a short video review of their stuffing-flavored popcorn. Sonia and I enjoy that product a lot, too.

Right now, we're focusing in on Trader Joe's Cornbread Stuffing with Roasted Apples, Dried Cranberries, and Savory Herbs. This might be my favorite Trader Joe's actual stuffing product. The popcorn and potato chips got the highest scores on our blog, but if we're talking actual breading/dressing/filling/stuffing then I think this is the best one we've seen from TJ's.

It's very moist and slightly sweet. It's salty and savory, but the apples and cranberries add a nice fruity taste to the breads, herbs, and spices. It's soft and fluffy. We heated ours in the oven right in the tray that it comes in, and it came out great. I'm told it winds up a bit soggy when prepared in the microwave.

$5.99 for the 17 oz container, found in the refrigerated section. Would buy again. Sonia didn't grow up eating pumpkin pie or cranberry sauce, but she did grow up with turkey and stuffing, and she likes this product as well. We'll probably have this again for Christmas Dinner. We'll both go with eight out of ten stars for Trader Joe's Cornbread Stuffing with Roasted Apples, Dried Cranberries, and Savory Herbs.

Bottom line: 8 out of 10.
