About this recipe
The dish combines diced celery and onions with butter, then folds in plenty of fresh herbs and dried bread cubes. Eggs and stock are added to keep the stuffing moist and fluffy, while a quick bake finishes the texture. The result is a fragrant, hearty side that pairs well with turkey, roasted vegetables, or gravy.
Serve the stuffing hot from the oven, scooped onto a serving platter. It stays deliciously moist whether you spoon it onto a plate or let guests help themselves from a buffet spread.
