Stuffing is such a personal choice and defines so many Thanksgiving tables. I find tradition dictates this holiday side dish more than any other, as everyone likes the way their Mom makes it. My Mom always made a classic stuffing that was simple. That’s the way I like it – with plenty of gravy! It will always be on my table, but I am up for adding a second version too – it’s a feast right?
The recipe featured here represents the classic approach, but if you want to try something new this year, below are 3 picks for going rogue.
