My husband loves stuffing. All the years I’ve made it and it turned out too mushy, too dry, or just not very tasty, he always raved about it.  Yeah, that’s why I love him. He’ll eat anything and rave about how good it is.  That’s because he can cook very few things. Once he made John’s burritos; a hot dog in a flour tortilla with cheese. Yeah, he’s not known for his fetching menus. But he does a pretty good buttermilk waffle!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Mrs. Cubbison’s Seasoned Cornbread Stuffing…YUMMY! <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Over the years I’ve loved this Mrs. Cubbison’s Cornbread Stuffing Mix. It is mild flavored enough that I can doctor it up how I like it. But it has that cornbread taste which I love. I am the Weekday Chef. That means I’m no gourmet. I don’t have time to be. So shortcuts are always on the agenda. And this shortcut is easy and delicious.  So here is my stuffing recipe. It’s always good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
I use a Honeycrisp apple, sweet Vidalia onion (if you can find one) <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n\n

I follow the directions pretty much on the label. I cut up all my veggies. Then I melt the butter and add the apple juice liquid. Then I add the veggies. Then when it’s hot I take it off the heat and add the cornbread mix. It may need a bit more moisture so you could add 1\/3rd cup water to it while mixing. It should be all moist.  Then I put it in a casserole dish and cover it with foil.  Bake it 45 minutes to 55 minutes covered.<\/p>\n

It’s easy and always turns out a crowd pleaser. And it’s even better the next day as leftovers! That’s the best part of having company over for dinner; you get all the leftovers! Yup! Happy Turkey Day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
