Ingredients

  • 5 tablespoons butter unsalted
  • 1 small yellow onion diced
  • 3 stalks celery diced
  • ½ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh herbs Rosemary, sage, thyme
  • 1 box StoveTop sage stuffing mix
  • 1 package herb-seasoned classic stuffing mix Pepperidge Farms blue package
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with butter or non stick cooking spray.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, celery, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and minced fresh herbs. Cook for 7 to 10 minutes or until tender.
  • In a large bowl, combine boxed stuffing mix, bagged stuffing mix, vegetable and herb mixture, and chicken broth. Stir to combine.
  • Pour into prepared 9x13-inch dish and cover with foil. Bake for 35 minutes. Remove foil, and bake uncovered for another 15 minutes or until golden brown.

Notes

  • Any boxed stuffing will work for this recipe.
  • I’m using this Pepperidge Farm Herb Seasoned stuffing mix. Feel free to try any other flavor.
  • Optional add-ins - cranberries, raisins, walnuts, pecans, sausage, or mushrooms.
  • I don’t recommend stuffing the turkey with this. Instead, cook in a baking dish and serve on the side.
  • Leftovers will store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Or you can freeze leftovers for up to 3 months. To reheat - thaw in the fridge overnight and bake in the oven at 350°F for 15 minutes.
