Variations & Tips
For a bit of sweetness, you can add 1/2 cup of dried cranberries or raisins to the stuffing mixture. If you have picky eaters, consider adding cooked sausage or chopped apples for extra flavor. For a vegetarian version, use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth. You can also experiment with different herbs like rosemary or parsley to suit your family’s taste.
