These I am doing tonight and they will reheat int he morciwave so I don't have to spend the entire day in the kitchen. I will be doing to kinds of dressing tomorrow, one to go inthe bird and another that will just cook in a cassarole. I'll be doing my regular stuffing for the bird and a apple-walnut dressing for the cassarole (hubby love his dressing so this way we will have LOTS).
