Great stuffing, and can understand why ....especially when handed down from generation to generation. I only needed to use 2 eggs, and 3 cups of chicken broth, but other then that, just great. I used about 1/2 teaspoon of poultry seasoning and it was plenty. A wonderful recipe and one that will use often! Thanks for sharing!
