This recipe is a crowd pleaser. Your kitchen is likely to be a miss when all is said, but it is worth it. My husband had doubts the first time I made it, but he ate his words. The only changes I make are; 1. I use the pepperidge farm bread cumbs instead of cutting up loaf bread. 2. I use onions instead of leeks. 3. I add a little sage and thyme.

This is the best stuffing you will ever eat! I make mine in a baking dish. I substituted 1 box of Mrs. Cubbison's Herb Cube Stuffing, instead of making my own bread crumbs, and I substituted 1 bunch of chopped green onions for the leeks. I also use 2cups (1 can) of low sodium chicken broth. I've made this 3 times and everyone loves it and wants the recipe! I would caution that the prep time is longer than stated. If you are pressed for time cook the sausage, and do some of the chopping the day before. You will never go back to regular "box" stuffing again!

I really loved this stuffing and so did everyone else at Thanksgiving dinner. Even the skeptics were quickly convinced. I went ahead and added more broth than the recipe called for (as suggested by others) and I think that was a mistake. I need to brown it up under the broiler because it was too soggy. Just follow the recipe!!! But it turned out great in the end! I will make it again next year!!

I left out the sausage and poultry seasoning. It went very well with the roast chicken I made. The cranberries added a lovely burst of sweetness. Will probably use on Xmas Day with turkey.

Really 4.5 stars because of my "liquid dilemma"...see below. This is the best stuffing/dressing I have ever eaten. I've never been one to put sausage in my dressing...it just seemed too "unhealthy," but is it ever great! Because I like the convenience, I substitute Pepperidge Farm Seasoned Bread Cubes (any type or combination...white/wheat/cornbread) for the do-it-yourself white bread cubes. Therefore, I don't add any poultry seasoning...but don't leave out the rosemary! Here's the one problem I've had with this recipe each time...how much chicken stock to use? Since I make it as dressing (not stuffing, which goes inside the bird), it comes out VERY dry with only 1 and 1/3 cans. This time I went to three cans, but I can't seem to get the amount quite right...it was still somewhat dry. Despite my "liquid dilemma," this has been the most complimented on and most requested holiday recipe I've ever used...other than my Bourbon Cranberries!

This is our favorite stuffing recipe, and my husband requests it every year! I've made a few changes to suit my family's taste -- I use about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of FRESH cranberries, instead of dried ones, and cook them up with the apples & leeks. I also use whole wheat bread instead od white, and I leave out the celery. EXCELLENT!

I have never given a recipe 5 stars before but this was amazing! I used two apples and lots of chicken broth as I cooked it out of the chicken. I also did not add cranberries- it just sounded too sweet. I made it the night before and only threw it in the oven for 45 minutes. The next day at a potluck I threw it in the oven for 7-9 minutes and broiled the top for a more to give it a little crust on top. Overall- delish! Oh yeah I also used chicken and apple sausage I happened to find at the grocery store that day...a lot healthier too.

This is the best Turkey Dressing I have ever tasted. I had lots of compliments and receipe requests. This will definately be the "NEW TRADITION" for stuffing at Christmas and Thanksgiving.

Yum! I've tried a lot of stuffing recipes, and they never seem to turn out well, but this was a huge hit! I substituted raisins for cranberries, which was great, and used one onion instead of the leeks. Cooked in a casserole dish instead of a turkey, which meant I added at least twice the amount of chicken broth. Worked very well!

We have served this several years in a row and LOVE it. I do alter it a smidge by adding a little more chicken broth at the end (which I believe the directions forgot to tell you to add in the first place but it is in the ingredient list.) Instead of 1 1/3 cups I add 2 cups. This year I made it with sourdough bread and it turned out divine.

I made this last year and everyone loved it. Even my husband who doesn't eat dressing/stuffing liked it. At first I thought it asked for alot of leaks but they blend right into all the flavors and isn't overwhelming at all. This was so good and I wouldn't change a thing. I can't imagine adding oregano and pumpking pie spice to it, as another reviewer suggested. Those flavors seem odd together.
