10 Thanksgiving Stuffing Recipes | Home. Made. Interest. (1)First, let’s get the whole stuffing vs dressing thing out of the way. Basically the two terms are interchangeable, while stuffing is usually stuffed inside the turkey and baked (hence the name) it can be cooked separately and vice versa for dressing. It really just boils down to where you were raised. As a born and raised Marylander it’s stuffing for me, Kat is a southern girl so she calls it dressing. No matter what you call it I think we can all agree that no Thanksgiving is complete without it, so I’ve rounded up 10 amazing looking thanksgiving stuffing recipes, who knows maybe I’ll try something different this year!

    • Kat November 23, 2018 @ 6:34 pm Reply

      Hi Lynn, my cornbread dressing gets a little crispy on top as it bakes. In fact if it starts getting too brown I cover it with foil.
