Yeah, I really can't say I liked this one. Just wasn't my fave. Family didn't care for it either.

This stuffing is fabulous!! Its so yummy that i'm making it again, only three days later. I'm literally craving it. I'm not sure why other reviewers are not happy. I added extra poultry seasoning to the bread because I really like strong flavor. I just made sure to sprinkle each piece of bread with seasoning (enough so that I can see its on there. I think that added to the flavor content. The gravy is fabulous and complements the flavors of the stuffing beautifully. Rachel as always, thank you! I think your the best chef and definitely my favorite on food network.

I liked the idea and the flavors were fine, nothing to jump up and down about. I cut it into bite sized chunks like she did on her show. Next time (my husband liked it a lot so there will probably be a next time I will actually cut up the pieces much smaller so they blend together more.
