Make Ahead Side Dishes

A make ahead recipe will save you the time to focus on other important tasks, like opening that extra bottle of wine! Feel free to bake an entire casserole dish of stuffing in advance so there is enough for leftovers!

The foundation to a great dressing is always the bread cubes. Dried enough to stay firm while inside the roasting bird, and absorbent enough to soak up the broth and seasonings (and alllll the buttah)! This recipe comes from my sister in law and while I do love a good sausage stuffing this turkey stuffing is perfect to make ahead of time! It has lots flavor from the turkey borth, a hint of sweetness from the creamed corn and great texture from the eggs!

I always try to use homemade turkey broth or stock (or store bought) over chicken if I can find it, it adds the best turkey flavor to this meal!

How to Make Dressing Ahead of Time

Cook onions and celery in butter over medium heat. Stir in corn, broth, poultry seasoning, and other seasonings (per recipe below).
Pour broth mixture over dried bread cubes. Allow to cool and stir in the breadcrumbs.
Use a large scoop or your hands to form the stuffing into balls and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle with butter, cover tightly and refrigerate up to 48 hours.
To cook, bake for 20-30 minutes or until hot and golden.
