Happy ThanksgivingDoes anyone know a really good stuffing recipe?
I heard Rachel Ray just crumbled up pumpkin muffins to make a stuffing.


I also so her do stuffing in individual little muffin tins.





I cook peeled and cored apples, onions and sausages all chopped into pieces in a crock pot for hours and then add bread crumbs and then bake the whole thing in a 375 degree oven for


about half an hour. You can also add a little cooked squash when done.Does anyone know a really good stuffing recipe?
CORNBREAD STUFFING WITH FRESH AND DRIED FRUIT


The cornbread needs to dry overnight, so start this at least one day ahead.

12 dried apricot halves, diced (about 2 ounces)


1 tablespoon fennel seeds


2 teaspoons coarse kosher salt


1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper


1 teaspoon dried thyme


1 cup low-salt chicken broth














Cut bread lengthwise into 1-inch-wide slices. Place on baking sheet; cover with kitchen towel and let dry overnight. Cut bread slices into 1-inch cubes.





Preheat oven to 375掳F. Butter 13x9x2-inch glass baking dish. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and saut茅 until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add apples and celery. saut茅 until celery begins to soften, about 10 minutes. Scrape contents of skillet into very large bowl. Add prunes, apricots, fennel seeds, salt, pepper, and thyme; toss. Add dried bread cubes and toss until evenly combined. Transfer stuffing to prepared dish. Pour broth evenly over.





Bake stuffing uncovered until heated through and top begins to form crust, about 40 minutes.
