Yummy, We love cornbread dressing, the Sausage and Toasted Pecans is a very tasty addition, Served it with my recipe for porksteak. The gravy was great with the dressing. Thank you Chia, for another great recipe.

This was so good! My brother couldn't stop eating it. It was so very simple to make, yet it tasted like it took all day to make! The blend of dry to liquid ingredients was perfect! I did add just a couple shakes of dried sage along with the thyme, but other than that, followed the recipe to a "T." I used a package of Stove Top cornbread stuffing mix in mine. Thanks Chia! This is a new family favorite.
