Cornbread Stuffing
Cornbread Stuffing is so much like the box stuffing but without all the yucky preservatives and chemicals. And it's not too hard to make.

In my quest to eat no preservatives, I now must make my own stuffing. The Hardworking Husband loves the stuff from the box. But look at these ingredients.
I was finally able to see that there is celery, onion, parsley, chicken and chicken stock in it. But the ingredient list on the box is much longer than my list. I really don't want to be eating all the rest. So I set off to figure out how to make homemade stuffing that tastes like the box.
For this recipe, you'll need to make cornbread first. The best cornbread recipe I've found tastes so much like Marie Callender's cornbread mix. I love that you can make every part of this Cornbread Stuffing recipe from scratch and you know exactly what is in your stuffing.
The leftovers of this cornbread stuffing is great to use in the Apple and Almond Stuffed Pork Chops. You can also you it in place of the box of stove top stuffing in Jamie's Chicken Green Bean Stuffing Casserole.
