Cherry-Glazed Cornish Hens with Sourdough-Cherry Stuffing
The cherry glaze adds beautiful color to the hens. Serve with a side of steamed Broccolini or green beans. For easier clean-up, line the bottom of the broiler pan with foil.

Made these for Thanksgiving several years ago and they were FANTASTIC! Because of travel arrangements, I needed something that didn't take hours and hours to prepare for a smaller crowd and still had that "ooh-aah" presentation. The glaze gave these birds a beautiful appearance and wonderful flavor. If you want to impress guests but don't want to spend all day in the kitchen, give this a try!

I also made green bean casserole and pumpkin cheesecake. It really was delicous and allowed me to have a real thanksgiving dinner.

Since I had a sort of vegetarian at the table, I set some stuffing aside for her and she devoured it. Will definitely make this again
