Notes
The cast-iron makes cooking it so easy and delicious. If you donāt have a cast iron itās no problem. You can easily use a pan of choice and then transfer the mixture into a casserole dish. Some people cover their stuffing with tinfoil while it bakes. I prefer just a little crunch mixed in with the soft delicious stuffing. Itās easy to play around with this recipe and use different breads, nuts, or other toppings. This is a thanksgiving staple in our house and we canāt get enough of it! And the best part is, it didnāt come out of a turkey butt – happy thanksgiving! š„°šš
