"This recipe has grown a few strapping boys and delighted even the pickiest gal in the bunch. Our home is always full to overflowing on Thanksgiving and Christmas. This is the one recipe that is a "must" even if we don't do turkey. This has evolved over the years to try to hit everyone's preferences. It's my own invention! It tastes..."

Ingredients: fresh mushrooms, mild ground sausage...

"I have used this recipe for over 30 years now (as did my mother)--and everyone loves it! An absolute requirement at our Thanksgiving Holiday table. Recipe makes enough for a 12-pound turkey, and is easily doubled. I have included the optional technique for making stuffing balls. Enjoy! Adapted from Betty Crocker. Note: see tip for freezing."

Ingredients: fresh ground black pepper, dried sage...

"This is a meat stuffing my family has used all my life and before. This was given to my mother by her mother, and I imagine, her mother. Our whole family used this recipe. My daughter makes this stuffing as well, and now my granddaughters have the recipe so they will eventually use it.
It is a very tasty stuffing so we make "tons"..."

"Pop grows squash and zucchini every year and I'm always on the lookout for new ways to eat it. I like this recipe because it's different from frying. I'm sure it will be an excellent alternative to the same old way you've been eating your squash too. You can also sub in zucchini...it's good too! This can be divided between two..."

"My family's favorite and a great way to save time on Thanksgiving or any other day. From Talk About Good by the Junior League of Lafayette, Lousiana."

Ingredients: cornbread, turkey broth, eggs...

"This make ahead comes from a Byerly's cookbook. Refrigerate overnight and pop in the oven in time for dinner. I like to boil the red potatoes 2 days ahead, to eliminate the mushy factor. And notice how it bakes at 350 degrees instead of a higher temperature."

Ingredients: red potatoes, salt...

"In my photo you will notice a darker portion of the stuffing; this was the bit that was stuffed into the turkey itself and after roasting it has a crispy outside coating. This is a delicious savoury stuffing that I make every year for Thanksgiving. During the year I love to make it with a whole chicken minus the giblets as I can't find chickens..."

Ingredients: fresh ground pepper, dried herbs...

"For Thanksgiving 2008, my mother in law had a total knee replacement so would be unable to make stuffing balls this year. When I asked for her recipe, she said "Don't ask me that, I don't have it written down." I just mix it up. So, I did some research and some testing and this version gained my son's approval."

Ingredients: pepper, onions, parsley flakes...

"These quirkily named "Pigs in Blankets" are the traditional British accompaniment to the Christmas roast turkey dinner - we call them "Trimmings". You will often see pubs, restaurants and hotels advertising Christmas Dinner with ALL the trimmings - these will be part of those trimmings that they mention! We can eat these with NO..."

Ingredients: streaky bacon, sausages...

"This is the best stuffing ever. Even my picky inlaws LOVE it.

This recipe takes some planning but all of the prep work can be done well ahead of time. I make the bread, then combine all the ingredients except broth, then freeze it in a foil baking dish. Next I freeze the broth in muffin tins and when it's solid, I toss it on top of..."

Ingredients: fresh coarse ground black pepper, eggs...

"A wonderful colourful, fruity & flavourful stuffing recipe; you can use any type of bread, but stale bread works best! I have used dried cranberries, but fresh can be used too. Likewise, I have listed vacuum packed chestnuts, but fresh, frozen or canned can also be used. This stuffing is best made upto a day before - to allow the flavours to infuse..."

Ingredients: cooking apples, oranges...

"Down home, southern cornbread stuffing that will make you want Thanksgiving to be every Sunday! Every person that tries this at my dinner table asks for the recipe. I even have an aunt that visits from out of town who requests this be made even if dinner is cheeseburgers! Enjoy... it is so good"

"My mother has made this dressing for our family since I was a little girl. It is the only Thanksgiving dressing my family will eat. I would weigh 500 pounds if I made this dressing as often as I craved it! Although I know most people prefer holiday recipes that have been passed down in their own families, I hope you will enjoy this Thanksgiving dressing..."
