my mom's perfect thanksgiving stuffing

  • How To Make my mom's perfect thanksgiving stuffing

      • Bread cubes and herbed seasoned stuffing in a bowl.
        Step 1
        In a large bowl, combine the bag of bread cubes with Pepperidge Farm herbed seasoned stuffing.
    • Sauteeing onions, green pepper, and celery in butter.
      Step 2
      In a frying pan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Sautée onions, green pepper, and celery (or celery seed) until all is softened and translucent.
    • Pouring cooked vegetables over the bread.
      Step 3
      Pour melted butter and vegetables over all bread cubes and crumbs.
    • Mixing in beaten eggs.
      Step 4
      Mix in the two beaten eggs. Toss.
    • Tossing in the seasonings.
      Step 5
      Add:
      1 tsp Garlic Powder
      1 tsp Poultry Seasoning
      2 Tbsp Dried Parsley
      1 Tsp Oregano

      Toss again.

    • Adding chicken broth to the bread mixture.
      Step 6
      Now pour chicken broth over all of the mixture making sure that stuffing is ALMOST wet. You want it to be more than damp, but not downright wet so that stuffing doesn’t dry out while inside turkey baking. (You can judge if stuffing is becoming too wet, just reserve the rest of the broth if not needed. Many people like to use milk, but I find that it causes it to have a bland flavor. The chicken broth is the secret to excellent flavor, here.)
    • Making sure the bread is completely coated.
