oh, I can't stand that boxed stuff, with the seasoning packet with dehydrated celery!
I bake a loaf of stuffing bread the day before and cube it (it's white sourdough bread with seasonings such as poultry seasoning, sage, onion, etc)
I bake a pan of cornbread, about 2 parts stuffing bread to 1 part cornbread. Crumble the cornbread and leave out overnight to air dry
I brown a very large onion, 3-4 stalks of celery, a box of fresh mushrooms, minced, and a tube of Jimmy Dean lower fat breakfast sausage in a stick of butter.
To that, I add all the bread, some pecans, and real chicken or turkey stock (homemade) and any seasonings such as Penzeys poultry seasoning, onion powder, extra sage, black pepper, etc.
I either bake in a baking dish or the crockpot. If the crockpot, I make it a little drier because moisture doesn't evaporate with that method. I always make extra because I like to assemble leftover turkey, stuffing, and gravy for freezer containers.
Awesome.
In a pinch i will use Pepperidge Farms vs the homemade bread but I really prefer the homemade.
