We are only a few weeks away from Thanksgiving; are you ready? Well here is a basic stuffing recipe to add to your Thanksgiving menu. I'm not very big on actually putting stuffing inside of a raw turkey so I always make it separate. When shopping for ingredients please read the sodium level on the chicken broth. Some labels that say low sodium aren't actually that low in sodium. There are brands out there that have chicken broth with 50 to 70 mg of sodium per cup. Also if you are vegetarian you could easily make this recipes and just use Vegetable broth. Just a reminder there are more thanksgiving recipes on www.chefwithaheart.com. Enjoy Everyone!

12 slices Diet Whole Wheat Bread (toasted and cubed)
