my creation ♡

Dressing/stuffing is essentially a savory bread pudding, and there's about a million different ways to make it. I call this half and half dressing because it's half "traditional", half cornbread. It's the way we came to a dressing compromise in our house. Lol. One thing is for sure though, we like ours moist in the center and crisp around the edges. This is what you should be able to achieve with this recipe.

I love stuffing. It is my favorite part of any holiday meal. When I was younger, my mom would make extra stuffing, because she knew how much I loved it.People have come close to hers, but none can top her stuffing. Not saying that no one else makes good stuffing, but to me hers was the best. I wish that she still made it, but after cooking for 6 children and 11 grandchildren, she is done cooking My mother-in-law is a close second. Both of stuffings are basic. Bread, sausage, with herbs & spices.This stuffing is very close, but I added Italian sausage and cranberries. Why? The better question is why have I not done it sooner? I hope you like it as much as my family and friends do.As for the Stuffing vs. Dressing debate, here is my stance. Does it really matter? If you really like it, then it should not matter. If you want to call this Holiday Breading Concoction, then have at it. It is good, no matter what you call it.Cook and let eat.Enjoy!

Eventhough I was adopted at birth, this recipe has been in my family well over 100 years!Not just a dressing, I stuff my turkey with it as well...

This is my favorite stuffing recipe.

bbq'd chicken, mashed potatoes, and stuffing :)

Taste great with the added sausage, apple and cranberry!

Found this recipe in the newspaper over a decade ago. I have changed it from the original over the years but the 2 ingredients that are a MUST is the Pepperidge Farm stuffing and the chicken stock! Everyone loves this filling!

This is the recipe I created while trying to recreate my grandmas dressing. My family can't get enough of it!

Of the all the receipts I have experimented with for Thanksgiving stuffing this is probably my favorite. It is very aromatic, and has a great flavor that both the adults and kids appreciate. Additionally, this dressing can be assembled and refrigerated overnight for up to 24 hours before baking. If baking the dressing directly from the refrigerator, expect to add 10 extra minutes of baking time. Leftovers can be refrigerated for 4 days or up to 1 month frozen. #KeepRecipesAlive
