Giveaway, I Won and You Can Too

 Many Thanks to Nancy at The Brambleberry Cottage                          for her recent giveaway.
I won a $40 CSN gift card!

I ordered this Simple Human Sensor Soap Dispenser

I think it'll be great in the kitchen. You all know how much I love to cook! No more touching the faucet handles with yucky (yes I said yucky) hands. I'll probably write a review on this product in the future.

Now on to You winning something. I am so incredibly grateful that Katherine's Corner is sooo very close to the 1500 follower goal. I can barely contain myself. So as a little motivation I thought I'd post a little peek at  the prize I'm giving away. Here is the tease, giggle just a peek at the main prize , invite your friends to join us and help get to the 1500 followers goal!

Holiday Stuffing Recipe

This month I'm going to share a few favorite Thanksgiving recipes.  This stuffing is always a big hit. I suggest you make it once before the big day in case you want to make any changes. Make your favorite and this one too!

What You Need

1 Lb. Fresh bread (torn into 2-inch cubes)

6 Tbsp unsalted butter

1 1/4 cups white onion (diced)

1 cup celery (diced)

 1 cup carrots (diced)

 3 cloves garlic (minced)

 2 cups chestnuts (cut into 3 pieces)

 2 Granny Smith apples (peeled, cored, and diced)

 6 oz. dried cranberries (cherry flavored is best)

 2 Tbsp thyme leaves (chopped)

 2 tsp kosher salt

 1/2 tsp freshly ground pepper

 1 cup flat-leaf parsley (chopped)

 3 large eggs

 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

 1 1/2 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth

Large roasting pan

Large Bowl

3 Qt baking dish

Large skillet

Whisk

Small bowl or four cup measuring cup

Foil

Before You Start preheat oven to 300°F.

Let Make It! Place bread in a roasting pan. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, gently stirring bread twice, until lightly toasted and firm. Cool completely; place into a large bowl. Butter a 3-quart baking dish with 1 Tbsp of the butter. Melt remaining butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add onion, celery, carrot, and garlic and sauté 8 minutes, stirring frequently, or until vegetables are softened. Stir in chestnuts, apples, cranberries, thyme, salt, and pepper; sauté 4 minutes longer. Add mixture to bread with parsley and toss until well blended. Whisk eggs, cream and broth in small bowl or a 4-cup measure; drizzle mixture over stuffing mixture and gently toss until evenly moistened. Spoon dressing into prepared baking dish; cover with foil. Forty-five minutes before serving the turkey, place stuffing in a 350°F. oven; bake 25 minutes. Remove foil and continue to bake 10 to 15 minutes, or until stuffing is hot, browned and slightly crisp on top.

Reminder: Once I reach 1000 followers I will have another giveaway.The cupcake apron giveaway went well. It would be nice to have a giveaway before The December holidays arrive ( Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa)
