Classic Homemade Turkey Stuffing

This stuffing is so good, it will convert any stuffing hater!

I asked my Facebook fans what their favorite Thanksgiving side was and most of  the responses I got were stuffing and mashed potatoes.  As far as I'm concerned, green bean casserole can walk out the door and I would rather have some other greens like brussel sprouts or asparagus.

Once you master all the basic ingredients of stuffing you can add whatever you like to it. Bacon, sausage, cranberries, raisins, and apples just to name a few other additions to stuffing. You can buy those bags of stuffing where the bread is already cut up at the grocery store. If you don't mind using some knife skills just cut up your own bread. Heck, even some old buns, or biscuits can be used in place of bread.  Once the base of the stuffing is made, I added in some cooked sausage and dried cranberries (not listed in recipe).

    Why does it matter? Not every blogger chooses to add that to the nutrition. It's their choice.

    Why doesn’t this show a sodium count with the other nutritional info?
