Did not have walnuts so used hazelnuts, and substituted chicken broth for the water. Very tasty! Next time I think I will add a little onion. Makes a good lunch with fruit.

This is the second time I've made this recipe, we all love it. Last time I added mushrooms, this time I added pumpkin seeds, mushrooms,a half of a can of whole cranberry sauce, and some left over turkey. It's great for lunch. I even made up some in the tiny tart pans for appetizers.

We made this recipe for my husband's work party, and it was the best stuffing I ever had! Instead of using the muffin tins, we just used a regular casserole, and it worked fine. We are making it again for a family Christmas party. It is so good!

This was a hit at Thanksgiving! I loved the portion control size and they just tasted great! However, I had trouble getting them out of the muffin pan, so next time I might let them cool a bit or try more cooking spray.
