    I LOVE stove top stuffing! I use it in several of my casseroles. What I absolutely hate is panko bread crumbs. Funny how people's tastebuds are so different. (correction…it is Pepperidge Farms herb stuffing that I use)

    • @eurekamarijka
      @eurekamarijka 2 роки тому +6

      I always start with that Pepperidge Farm stuffing, such a great time saver and not too salty! I add cornbread, sausage, lots of chopped veggies. My favorite trick is to cook it in greased muffin tins so every piece has a crunchy edge! 😋

    When I was in college, we had a stuffing-making contest one Thanksgiving. There were six entries and most of them were 'grandma's recipe' - some with sausage, some with chestnuts, or apples, or whatever. Everyone was talking up their recipes all week. We brought Stove Top. Everyone loved it - we won the contest. I would have to say I do love salt, so the fact that you find it salty doesn't surprise me. But I love Stove Top Stuffing to this day.

I especially love how you don't want to use canned cream of anything soups in your recipes; so many of the UA-cam videos I'm seeing use them and I don't like them. Hmmm, next time I have to mash up something to make a crumbly topping. . . . I'm gonna use a skillet! (yeah, who knew, right?). Oh, and I'm definitely going to subscribe to your channel. i can't wait to try your Crock Pot (yeah, that's right, I call my slow cooker a Crock Pot) recipes.

    #2- lasagna-I think I might have used a bit of chicken broth instead of water to hydrate the casserole though part of the appeal of your channel is the thriftiness so maybe water would suffice. But I have a huge bag of dehydrated chicken broth from the survival store that makes a really tasty broth. Keep doing what you’re doing. . .love having discovered this channel.
