Dressing, Filling or Stuffing

Is kind of like soda to pop, pizza to pie or sub to hoagie.

All describe the same thing, it just depends what part of the country you live in that determines what you call this Thanksgiving Day staple.

This is the recipe I grew up with- straight from Pennsylvania Dutch country!

Happy Thanksgiving!

This makes (2) 9x13" pans
