Homemade Stuffing Recipe
This is my family’s homemade stuffing recipe. It’s a super easy recipe, that takes very little time to prepare so you can get to the more important things over the holiday (like visiting with your loved ones).
Homemade Stuffing
Growing up my mom and my grandma made the same recipe for homemade stuffing. So you know what? I have only ever had turkey stuffing recipe. If it wasn’t the homemade stuffing, it was Stove Top. I have never tried anything else (I think I should start exploring, don’t you?)
How to Make Homemade Stuffing
I find it best to prepare the stuffing recipe the day ahead, that way you just need to stuff and go. There is nothing worse than having to prepare a bunch of food the day of turkey dinner. It helps to be prepared, and makes it easier on you as the host!
This recipe makes a lot. There is enough to stuff the turkey and cook in a separate pan at 350 for (about) an hour.

Homemade Stuffing Recipe
My family’s classic homemade stuffing recipe. Looking on how to make homemade turkey stuffing? It’s a classic at Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, and Easter dinner.
Ingredients:
- 1 bag of cubed bread crumbs
- 1 tube frozen pork sausage, thawed
- 1 box of stove top
- 1 can of cream of celery soup
- 1 onion, diced
- 1-2 stalks of celery, diced
- 2-3 carrots, grated
- 1 tbsp Poultry seasoning, I eyeball this. I usually add it until it smells just right.
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
You’ll need either one big bowl, or two medium bowls to mix this together.
- Add all of the ingredients together and mix well (I find it’s best to get in with your hands, it helps mix the pork up).
- Reserve the amount of stuffing that you will use to stuff the turkey.
For the rest:
Put in a baking dish and bake at 350F for one hour. At the half hour mark, take out and give a stir.
Note: the original recipe uses canned mushrooms, drained but since my husband despises them – I leave them out.

I couldn’t find frozen pork sausage so I just bought the roll of regular pork sausage. Will that be OK u think.
I’m not sure, to be honest, I’ve never seen a roll of regular pork sausage. It should be fine!
