Homemade stuffing or Stovetop?

Although I'm a fairly decent cook, I'm not a fan of cooking. I'd rather wash the dishes. So when it comes to making things from scratch, I generally don't. I've never made stuffing on my own from scratch (I'd helped my dad with turkey stuffing a few times over the years, but that's it). If I have stuffing, it tends to be stovetop. I don't go out of my way to buy it, but my mother often brings me various grocery items when she visits every other month, and sometimes a box or two of stove top is part of the package. A few years ago I discovered the butterball frozen stuffed turkeys... and WOW! Talk about hassle free! I get one every year for Christmas now, so that I can spend Christmas morning with the kids, relaxing, and watching them open their gifts, and not have to spend the time on a turkey. Those frozen stuffed ones you just keep frozen and throw them into the oven. They're FANTASTIC!!!

I have never made homemade stuffing, ever. I have always made Stovetop stuffing. I think it tastes really good and it is so very easy to make. I have no idea on even how to make homemade stuffing. When I make Thanksgiving dinner I always make 2 or 3 packages of Stovetop stuffing and it goes along with mashed potatoes and all the other fixings. Only my son and I like the stuffing - my husband hates it. This way it is no fuss and just enough for those of us who like it. [b] Have a nice day and happy myLotting!!![/b]

i've never made home-made but my sister has and its good. they make it of course for thanksgiving. mostly because my brother inlaws family is vegan so they make 2 different kinds of stuffing. me, i would just use stove top, but i don't do thanksgiving dinners anyway.

I use StoveTop sometimes, but I really prefer homemade stuffing. I have made it with bread that was not staled/dries out before too and it turns out really good that way too. I have a bunch of Sage that I need to use up, so I might make something to serve with some homemade stuffing later this week. A pot pie maybe. I like to top a homemade pot pie with homemade stuffing instead of a pie crust.

I have never made stuffing from scratch. We always have a couple boxes of ready-to-make stuffing in case the craving kicks in. I'd like to make a homemade one though.

We usually do Stovetop except for around the holidays. During Thanksgiving and Christmas we cook homemade stuffing. On the week nights, it just easier to cook Stovetop.

I usually buy Stovetop, but I might have to go back to homemade stuffing if I can make it without stuffing the bird. I hate having to scrape it out of the turkey or chicken, and I heard that if you keep it in the edges, it is not that good for you. So I will have to find a way to simulate Stovetop just in case the family comes over. But since my daughter-in=law is allergic to celery and parsley, we just roast the bird and just have gravy or butter and maybe some applesauce.

i like my stove top stuffing from scratch the one that they have in the box sucks i don,t like it don,t taste right.

My husband buys the Stovetop stuffing and makes that instead of making from scratch.

i make my own dressing. even tho i don't cook big meals like i use to my sons always tell their wives to let mom make the dressing. i love good dressing. iprobably doit different than u do, i'mfrom the south & i use cornbread & biscuits.

I think homemade stuffings are just too time consuming. I'd rather get the boxed mix where you add a few ingredients and it's ready. Mmm I love turkey stuffing! Is that what you're making right now? Yum! I wish we could celebrate thanksgiving too but in my country it's not really part of the culture.

I like stovetop because it easy and quick just add water and butter and pop it in the microwave. Hey cooking is cooking, and esp if you have left over chicken or steak or turkey it is that easy and saves the day!

HI Carol; OH its always ALWAYS home made stuffing ( we call it dressing) in our house (G)! I myself much prefer our home made version of it, I never buy boxed anything tried it once years ago on a whim and nearly HURLED!! But its that time of year when its soooo good with baked Turkey or Baked chicken; LOVE IT!

Stuffing is the one thing i haven't made from scratch... but I have added sausge, sage, apples, mushrooms and old cornbread/corn muffins to the Stove Top Cornbread stuffing. I also make chicken stovetop with chicken broth and extra herbs instead of plain water.
