Club House Gluten-Free 'Stuffin Muffin' and Gluten-Free Gravy - Happy #Thanksgiving

Introducing the new Gluten-Free line from Club House!


Club House Gluten-Free | Addicted to Recipes


We are leading to Thanksgiving weekend here in Canada.  One most families' menu will be turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes, and so much more!  For may people with gluten intolerances or celiac disease, the holidays can be a challenging time to eat, given the gluten-based foods that often are part of holiday meals.  Thankfully, Club House has introduced a new gluten-free line of products which will make holiday meals that much more enjoyable for people with gluten issues!

We were fortunate to have the opportunity to try the new Club House Gluten-Free Brown Gravy, and of course, in Addicted to Recipes fashion, I needed to try a new recipe.  I found this recipe on the McCormick website, and it sounded like a must-try to me!  Here is the recipe:




 
Club House Gluten-Free Stuffin Muffins and Gluten-Free Gravy 
Source: McCormick Products

Ingredients:
1 lb smoked bacon, chopped
2 onions, peeled
2 stalks celery, peeled
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 loaf day-old All But Gluten Focaccia loaf - rosemary or onion flavoured
1 cup low sodium chicken stock
Salt & pepper to taste
4 tablespoons butter
1 package Club House Gluten-Free Brown Gravy Mix

Preheat oven to 400F.  Prepare muffin tin with by greasing with butter.

Fry the bacon in a large sauté pan until just brown and crispy.

Remove with a slotted spoon and pour off excess grease from the pan.

Coarsely chop the onions and celery and sauté in the pan with the butter until soft and translucent.

Add the poultry seasoning and stir for a minute or two.

Return the bacon to the pan along with the cubed bread.

Moisten with the turkey or chicken broth and stir well to combine.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Allow to cool slightly while the bread absorbs the broth.

Scoop portions of the stuffing into 3-inch balls and place into each muffin cup.

Bake for about 15-20 minutes, watch closely!

Drizzle your “stuffin muffin” with your gourmet gravy recipe.

I want to thank Dawn for this opportunity.  When Dawn first told me I could guest post on November 21, I thought, "hey, that is the biggest drinking night of the year!"  

Did you know that the night before Thanksgiving is indeed the biggest drinking night of the year?  It is even bigger than New Year's Eve!  Who knew?  So, I thought I would show you a few cocktail ideas to get you started!  It was really fun to test these!

So happy Thanksgiving Eve!  If you like what you see, please feel free to visit my blog, Milwaukee Kitchen!  Again, thank you Dawn.

Yummy Pumpkin Bars - Guest Post by Jenny from Bloom Designs Online


Hi Everyone- I am Jenny from Bloom Designs Online and I am so excited to be on Addicted to Recipes today. 

Fall is my favorite time of year and of course it's the perfect time for pumpkin treats. Now, I love pumpkin pie, but these are my absolute favorite pumpkin dessert. They are also finger friendly, so it makes them a little easier to have at your Thanksgiving dessert table.

Yummy Pumpkin Bars

You Need

1 box yellow cake mix
1 jar pumpkin butter
3 eggs
1 T Flour
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup butter
3 T milk
1 t cinnamon
 
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Measure out 1 cup of the cake mix and set aside.  Mix remaining cake mix with ½ cup melted butter and 1 egg.  Press mixture lightly into the bottom of a 9x13 pan lined with parchment. 

 
 
Mix pumpkin butter with 2 eggs lightly beaten and milk.  Pour over cake mixture in pan.

 
Mix reserved cake batter with flour, sugar, ¼ softened butter and cinnamon.  Crumble  on top of pumpkin layer.  You may have some holes. 
 
 
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until golden.  Cool in pan and then lift parchment to remove.  Dust with a mixture of powdered sugar and cinnamon.
 
 
 
SO YUMMY! Thanks so much for spending this time with me. You're welcome anytime at Bloom Designs Online.

Scrumptious Sunday Recipe Link Party #32

Hello everyone!  To all my Canadian friends, HAPPY THANKSGIVING!  I sure hope you're getting your fill of turkey and all the fixins'!

We are in the midst of a busy weekend...we had Thanksgiving dinner last night with my side of the family - my parents hosted, and it was great!  All of my Grandparents were there (I'm lucky to have 5 of them!)...it's always so nice for the little ones to send time with their Great-Grandparents!

We're also prepping our yard for the unavoidable winter...though it is still a ways away, we wanted to re-work some of our landscaping.  No time like a long weekend to do it!  Lots of moving perennials around, re-positioning bulbs, planting new bulbs, cleaning out the vegetable garden, levelling the lawn...all the "fun" stuff which will hopefully recult in a lovely yard and garden next year!

We are looking forward to my MIL arrving on Monday.  The kids are pretty excited to see Grandma!  We haven't seen them since July...that's a long stretch.  Unfortunately Grandpa can't get away from work this week, so it's just Grandma this trip.  But we'll all still have fun!

That's the update on my end!  I sure hope the weekend has been treating you fabulously!!  Now... It's time to share your fabulous recipes HERE for Scrumptious Sunday #32!

Don't forget, all featured recipes will be shared on my blog, and on my Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest pages!
