This week I have the privilege of sharing gluten-free holiday recipes created by Chef Cat Cora. The first recipe I am sharing is Wild Rice, Chorizo and Gluten-Free Bread Stuffing. The gluten-free bread for this recipe is created using Pillsbury® Gluten Free refrigerated pizza crust dough. This gluten-free dressing will make a delicious side dish for any of your holiday dinners.

Wild Rice, Chorizo and Gluten Free Bread Stuffing Recipe

Try this twist on sausage-rice stuffing. White rice is replaced with wild rice. And instead of a traditional sausage, this recipe uses flavor-packed chorizo sausage.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
