I love these articles. One 14 ounce box of stuffing...for eight people??? Are they all supermodels on a diet? I make my own using real bread, onions, celery, mushrooms, real butter and my own season mix...I’m guessing my mixture costs more than Stove Top.
I just find it amusing how they come up with their expert analysis.
Each person gets a 1/4 cup of stuffing, I guess. :(
This grocery list is quite silly in its simplicity and portions. They don’t even include butter on their list. Who makes Thanksgiving dinner without butter? That’s at minimum $2.00 a pound on sale.
Your stuffing is better than Stovetop.
I make mine from scratch most every year but this year. I do mine pretty much the way you explained it.
I'm with you. I'm probably good for 14 ounces of stuffing all by myself, and that's not including what I'll consume in leftovers!
My wife does most of the side-cooking but I handle the bird and stuffing myself. I do use the mix but I spice it up with things like eggs and celery and fresh cranberries. (Eggs help hold it together so it isn't crumbly.) I also use broth in place of water when mixing it up. In addition to cooking it in the bird, I bake an equal amount in a casserole dish. My stuffing is definitely something you don't want to see a food label on if you are counting your calories.
