Sure some you alternative lifestylists may go for the cornbread, but generally, bread-based variations rule the day. There�s a great reason for this; they�re easy, delicious, and most importantly, very familiar. Therein lies the problem.
Why mess with past success? Your loved ones wait all year for your Thanksgiving feast, so why take the chance of disappointing them on the big day? You have the entire rest of the year to do that.
Anyway, I�m not going to try and convince you that this is a superior dressing, or that you should change your regular routine, but if you�re someone who's looking for a change of pace dressing, that�s still very familiar and comforting, this could be the one.
Of course, you can use whatever ingredients you normally add to your bread dressing, and it should work just the same. By the way, I never stuff my turkey, so if you choose to use this as a stuffing, please refer to the roughly one million Thanksgiving turkey cooking guides linked online. Enjoy!
