This stuffing recipe was sooooo yummy! I wanted to prepare something different than the usual -- this was to be the first time having my family to my home for thanksgiving dinner. People were making a meal out of the stuffing!!! My mom just called and asked me to email her the recipe for Christmas dinner -- I think it went over well! Thanks!!!

This was the best stuffing my family ever had. We ate the entire pan at our Thanksgiving dinner. It was sweet, but not too sweet. I substituted one cup of chesnuts for the water chesnuts and it turned out really tasty. Everyone demands that I make more of it for Christmas.

This stuffing is very yummy and a nice alternative for anyone who dislikes eggs like I do. I usually pass on stuffing because of the eggs. Great recipe, thanks.
