I usually just make breadcrumbs with all of my saved bread heels, but happened to have a freezer bag full when I found this recipe. They worked great, though I did find that with all the extra crusts that I needed to increase the liquid quite a bit. A tad too much sage for my taste: ? tsp would be plenty.

Made this as a take-along for dinner today. To lower the sodium count I left out the chicken bouillon and used Mock Chicken Stock<br/>#359988 in place of water. This is 100% better than that box stuff! I will pop it in the oven for an hour to crisp the top and heat it to go to the dinner. Thanks Paula, this is my new favorite for quick and easy delicious stuffing. Made for Celebrating National Diabetes Month and of course Happy Thanksgiving!

Like another reviewer, I thought the end product was tasty, but a little too wet as well. If you are just looking for a quick alternative to StoveTop, this works well.

You won't be finding those boxed mixes in my shopping cart! Love that this four cup combination is just right to go with a small chicken. Made as posted - the seasoning mix one that was just right for us. Thank you Paula. Made for Auz/NZ Swap

I used a combination of white and whole wheat bread cubes and though they were well dried out the 1 1/4 cups of water made the stuffing a little too wet for our taste. I like the idea and the taste of the recipe, I just need to play with proportions a bit. TFS, this will come in handy.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com. Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net. Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
