I take the easy road on Thanksgiving by using store-bought stuffing to go with my favorite turkey recipe. I usually buy the turkey variety of StoveTop, but this year I opted for the Cornbread mix.
In order to give this a homemade twist and just a little more of a fresh flavor, I add some extras. The extra ingredients always include onion and celery sauteed in some butter. I like to include some of the celery leaves for extra flavor.
This year I happened to have an apple, so I chopped that finely and added to the saute. In the past, I have added pecans. Maybe you have some fresh ingredients you can add to your stuffing mix?
After I prepare the stuffing according to the directions, I stir in the sauteed fresh ingredients. I find that two boxes makes a 9x13 pan. Before the meal, I cover this and heat with the other Thanksgiving casseroles. This semi-homemade shortcut makes my Thanksgiving meal a little easier!
