Turkey is the centerpiece of any Thanksgiving spread. But for me, this indulgent fall holiday is all about the amazing sides: buttery mashed potatoes, rich gravy, baked macaroni and cheese, and warm dinner rolls. It's hard to pick a favorite when presented with so many tantalizing options, but if I even had to choose, I would pick stuffing in a heartbeat.
The look: Way too mushy and unexpectedly green in color. The dry croutons that came in the Trader Joe's package were also much darker in color than what was advertised on the box. The taste: Much more palatable than the Trader Joe's stuffing, but still not tasty enough that I would ever buy it again. The texture of the stuffing was inexplicably mushy on the outside but still slightly hard in the middle, even though I followed the directions very thoroughly. I wouldn't have minded the unpleasant texture nearly as much if at least the taste was good, but I was disappointed on that end as well.
Stove Top's Savory Herbs Stuffing directs you to boil water with either butter or margarine, then mix in the croutons and let them absorb the liquid. A six-ounce box cost me $2.99. The look: Darker and sturdier than the slightly gummy Stove Top version. This herb-studded Aldi option seemed to soak up the water and butter perfectly without getting too soft.
