About

Food for thought: Stuffing Casserole is actually a kind of lasagna. Seriously! Sure, instead of lasagna noodles it uses savory, chicken broth-infused stuffing fresh from the Thanksgiving table, with some pecans and cranberries for crunch and color. But the creamy, tangy ricotta is here! So is the juicy turkey and the melty cheese. No matter what, Stuffing Casserole is a beautiful way to use those holiday leftovers in the most delicious way!
