Stove Top Stuffing Cheat Recipes

In this post, I am featuring quick and easy ways to dress up your favorite Stove Top Stuffing just in time for the holidays!

Do you call it stuffing or dressing? We call it stuffing in our household, and Stove Top is the family's favorite.

It seems like a cheat to use stuffing from a box on the holidays, but my family won't use anything else. I think doctoring it up slightly, is a great way to dress it up and hopefully your guests won't be able to tell its from a box!
