I toasted the bread like the previous reviewer suggested. First time making homemade stuffing- very impressed!

This was a fantastic way to relieve my stove and oven during thanksgiving morning. Some members of my family like their stuffing drier and/or straight inside the bird so I was able to do so without any problem just by taking some from this one. There was none left this year!

Great stuffing recipe. Easy to make and nice to have the oven free for other dishes especially for a holiday meal. Will definitely make again, may not wait for a holiday!

I love this recipe! It's flavorful and super easy to make! I've never made homemade stuffing so I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out and I wasn't sure what type of bread to use so I ended up using baguette bread and it turned out great! I used 2 eggs instead of the egg substitute and I added a little more sage than the recipe called for but I think that's just preference. I will definitely be making this for Thanksgiving...it sure does beat boxed stuffing.

My family was never big into stuffing when I was growing up, but when I made this stuffing for our gathering this year, everyone loved it!

I must have done something wrong, though I measured and followed directions. Stuffing was mushy; we threw it out.

Oh so easy & delicious! I used all wheat bread & 2 real eggs. Instead of poultry seasoning I used 1/4 tsp each of ground ginger, rosemary, oregano, & marjoram. I'll double everything next time to make a bigger batch in my 5 quart slow cooker.

The key to this recipe is patience and faith - both of which I am lacking. :) Trust in the time and cooking temp....it does have a lovely flavor. We added sauteed apples to the celery/onion mixture and then added some cranberries which really added a nice touch to the stuffing.

What a great way to give your stove/oven some space. This worked great for 2010 Thanksgiving, and we're doing it again this year.

Great recipe, and it makes the Thanksgiving meal prep that much easier.

This is very good and very easy. I have always used torn pieces of toast instead of day old bread cubes and it worked perfect in this recipe. I did not use sage, but that is only a matter of preference.
