For years my family has made an italian stuffing for Thanksgiving. It's a tradition. While I love my family traditions, this one is not my favorite. A few years ago when hubs starting joining us, he felt the same way as I did. So, this year we decided to add another stuffing to our Thanksgiving feast. I decided on this Pampered Chef recipe and am so glad I did. Hubs loved it and it will definitely be our new tradition for Thanksgiving.
* Changes I made: I omitted the onions and did not sauté the celery. I liked the extra crunch the celery added. I only added 2 Tbs of butter to the stuffing mixture since I didn't saute any veggies.
*Next time I will make the following changes: I will chop the cranberries so that there is more sweetness in each bite. I will also add some chopped walnuts to the mixture as well.
Savory Herbed Stuffing
Ingredients: | |
1 | package (14 ounces) herb-seasoned cubed stuffing |
1/2 | cup sweetened dried cranberries |
1 | tablespoon Pantry Rosemary Herb Seasoning Mix |
1/2 | cup (1 stick) butter or margarine |
1 | cup sliced celery |
1 | cup chopped onion |
2 | cans (14-141/2 ounces each) chicken broth |
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350°F. In Stainless (6-qt.) Mixing Bowl, combine stuffing, cranberries and seasoning mix. Melt butter in Professional (10-in.) Skillet over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook and stir 4-5 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender. Add vegetable mixture and broth to stuffing mixture; toss until moistened.
Spoon stuffing into Rectangular Baker; cover with aluminum foil. Bake, covered, 20 minutes. Remove foil; bake an additional 15-20 minutes or until stuffing is golden brown and heated through.
Yield: 16 servings
I made this for dinner last night and it was a HUGE hit! I made a few changes - mostly b/c I was only trying to feed a family of 4. But still had the same flavors. It was delicious and as my husband said: "I tore it up. Avery tore it up." I guess that translates to: it was really good and make it again please!
