Notes
Tammy's Tips
Using a mix of both traditional and cornbread stuffing gives this dish a wonderful texture and a hint of sweetness that pairs perfectly with the savory gravy. If you find your stuffing getting a little too dry, you can add an extra splash of chicken broth halfway through the cooking time. This is a simple way to enjoy a full turkey dinner any day of the week without all the fuss of roasting a whole bird!
