Awesome Homemade Dressing Stuffing Recipes

HOMEMADE BREAD STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until; saute onion and celery in hot butter until onion is soft, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Put bread cubes in a large bowl. Season bread with salt, sage, thyme, poultry seasoning, and black pepper. Add onion mixture to bread cubes; stir. Pour bread mixture into a large casserole dish and cover the dish with aluminum foil.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden and hot, about 1 hour.

MOM'S AWESOME STUFFING

Steps:

• Brown sausage and drain partially. (Keep some grease for stuffing).
• Cook Pepperidge Farm stuffing according to directions on package.
• Mix sausage, part of grease, cooked stuffing and all other ingredients, cooking on low on stovetop, continue to cook a while and taste, cook and taste.
• When it taste to your liking, you can either put it in the oven for 350 degrees for an hour or hour and a half or the best way is to stuff the turkey loosely with it. Don't forget to sew the turkey. If you do stuff the turkey, you will most likely have extra stuffing so you will have to bake some of it in a oven safe dish like I was talking about before.
• If you cook it in a dish in the stove, make sure you stir it every 20-30 minutes.

AWESOME HOMEMADE DRESSING (STUFFING)

Steps:

• 1. Tear up bread into bite sized pieces and allow to set out overnight to dry out. When ready to make dressing brown onion and celery in a 2-3 T of butter in a small skillet. Stir onion mixture into bread. Add remaining ingredients. Mix very well to blend everything. Dressing should be moist but not watery. Add more broth or bread if needed.
• 2. Place dressing in a greased casserole dish or stuff turkey with it. If baking in casserole dish bake at 350 degrees for about 1 1/2 hours. Serve with gravy. If stuffing a turkey follow package directions concerning turkey size and whether stuffed.

CLASSIC STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F and butter a 3-quart baking dish. Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, sage and thyme; season with 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add the broth and bring to a boil, then remove from the heat.
• Whisk the eggs and parsley in a large bowl. Add the bread and the vegetable-broth mixture and stir until combined. Transfer to the prepared baking dish. Drizzle with the turkey drippings (or dot with butter); sprinkle with the paprika.
• Cover the dish with foil and bake 30 minutes, then uncover and bake until golden, 25 to 30 more minutes.

HOMEMADE DRESSING

Steps:

• Saute the onion and celery in the butter until tender. Add mushrooms if you would like!
• Combine all ingredients in a large bowl; mix well. I use a healthy sprinkling of poultry seasoning -- that is what makes it smell soooo good while cooking!
• Place into a 13x9x2 inch baking dish.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
• If dressing begins to look too dry, add more chicken stock. (While waiting on the turkey to finish, you might leave the dressing in the oven -- in this case, add more chicken stock!).

AWESOME SAUSAGE, APPLE AND CRANBERRY STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C). Spread the white and whole wheat bread cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Bake for 5 to 7 minutes in the preheated oven, or until evenly toasted. Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl.
• In a large skillet, cook the sausage and onions over medium heat, stirring and breaking up the lumps until evenly browned. Add the celery, sage, rosemary, and thyme; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes to blend flavors.
• Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl. Mix in chopped apple, dried cranberries, parsley, and liver. Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter, and mix lightly. Allow stuffing to cool completely before loosely stuffing a turkey.
