It's friday, so that means it's Sunmaid Friday!
Today I am sharing a favorite quick stuffing recipe that we have used for YEARS AND YEARS in our family!
We always called it Quickie Stuffing, but Sunmaid calls it Sidedish Stuffing. Either way, it's SIMPLE, quick and can easily be added to, doubled and tripled! Just call it your go-to stuffing for the holiday season!
Ingredients
3/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup sliced celery
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1-3/4 cup (14.5-ounce can) chicken broth
1/2 cup Sun-Maid Natural Raisins (we always use white ones, and like to add chopped apples as well)
1 package (8-ounces) herbed stuffing mix
1/3 cup coarsely chopped pecans, toasted (this is optional- if you're not sure about nut allergies, LEAVE them out- especially if taking to a pot luck!)
Directions:1. Cook onion and celery in butter over medium heat until softened, 2 to 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Add broth and raisins. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer uncovered 3 minutes.
3. Stir in stuffing mix and pecans. Remove from heat; cover and let stand 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
Alternate: Casserole Stuffing: After stirring stuffing mix and pecans into broth, spoon mixture into a buttered casserole dish. Cover with foil. (If desired, refrigerate until ready to bake). Bake 30 minutes at 350ºF. Uncover and bake 5 minutes longer for a crisp top. (I personally LOVE it this way!, but if you're in a hurry, go for above stove top version!)
Makes 6 to 8 servings
