Squash, cranberries, cheese, turkey, and sage, OH MY! This killer combo features Reese’s herb seasoned croutons and Knorr chicken bouillon. Stuff inside of a squash as I have, inside your turkey or in a baking dish. I used red kuri and kabocha squash, however butternut and acorn have a similarly rich buttery taste to them, and would taste great.
