Mrs. Cubbison’s Seasoned Stuffing/Dressing Mixes and Seasoned Croutons Review

With Easter right around the corner, many of us are starting to plan our meals and menus for our family meal. Many of us choose to serve Ham or Turkey on a big holiday and of course all of the trimmings have to right along with it. One side dish that is traditionally served at Thanksgiving time or with Turkey is also great along side other meats and dishes at your Easter and big holiday traditional meals. Seasoned stuffing mix is what I am talking about.

Mrs. Cubbison’s Seasoned Stuffing and Dressing Mix is a great box mix that is super easy to prepare and it makes a delicious side for a special holiday or just a nice family meal. Making chicken for dinner? the stovetop method for Mrs Cubbison’s is very quick and easy and it is a nice change from potatoes.

For a holiday like Easter, you can get creative with some delicious variations to their regular recipe. Check out the recipe suggestions below to spruce up your Easter meal:

EASTER CULINARY CREATIONS – Recipes for SAVORY SIDES

EDIBLE EASTER STUFFING CENTERPIECE
Combine 1 box (2 bags) stuffing mix with ¾ cup chopped celery, ¾ cup chopped onion, 1 cup broth, juice or water, ½ cup canola or vegetable oil and 2 large eggs, lightly beaten. Press moistened stuffing firmly into a greased Bundt cake pan and bake in a preheated 375° oven for 30 minutes. Allow pan to cool before turning out onto a serving plate. Fill the center with shredded cabbage and add colored Easter eggs.

STUFFING EASTER EGGS! – Using the same recipe above, shape the moistened stuffing into egg shapes and arrange on a cookie sheet with a light coating of cooking oil spray; bake stuffing “eggs” in a preheated 375° oven for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown. Serve stuffing eggs with shredded cabbage “grass” beneath them or in a colorful linen-lined Easter basket.

ADD SPRINGTIME COLOR AND FLAVOR!

· LOVELY LAMB – Transfer prepared stuffing mix to the center of a large white or ivory platter; stack roasted rack of lamb on top and arrange fresh steamed Brussels sprouts, and cooked baby carrots around the meat adding fresh mint for garnish. For another healthful twist, cook lima beans in chicken broth and toss with sautéed onions, lemon juice, and a pinch of salt. Arrange around the lamb with lemon wedges as garnish.

· HAM’S PERFECT PARTNER — Stir in ½ cup bacon bits, 1 cup dried cherries, and one small can (drained) of pineapple chunks to the basic stuffing recipe; bake as usual and top with sliced, hard boiled eggs. Serve along side glazed pineapple ham.

· ASPARAGUS FOR THE SEASON — Replace ½ of the broth, juice or water called for in your stuffing recipe with cream of asparagus soup and mix according to package directions; arrange asparagus tips on top of the stuffing in your baking dish, cover with foil and bake as usual.

TASTY NEW TRADITIONS
Stuff Cornish game hens with prepared stuffing following package instructions for turkey. Before roasting, sprinkle chopped, fresh herbs on top of each hen and add round slices of a fresh lemon (or orange). Cover birds with foil and roast in a 325° oven for 30 minutes per pound of poultry; remove foil for the final 30 minutes to brown the birds. Serve ½ of a roasted, stuffed Cornish game hen per guest.

I was sent some of the Mrs. Cubbison’s Seasoned Stuffing and Dressing Mix and a bag of their Seasoned Croutons to review for you today. In my house, croutons are loved as a snack item and as soon as the box was opened and I grabbed my photo, those were devoured by my hubby and son. I really think they loved them… lol They didn’t even share with me although I think the dog got one.

The Dressing mix we made for dinner the other night. We chose to do the stovetop method and added some butter, celery and onion along with some chicken bullion and cooked it up. Within like 5 minutes it was done. I did add a bit more water to it as it seemed a bit dry. It is super simple to make and very quick! The flavor was good as it picked up a lot of the chicken flavor. It really isn’t as yellow as the pic shows.

I like that this product comes with 2 packages inside. You can elect to make one at a time for your family or combine them for stuffing birds or baking it off in the oven. There are a lot of different ways you can use this stuffing mix.

With Easter knocking on the door, add some of the Mrs. Cubbinsons products to your shopping list and share them at your family table. It is a nice savory side that will work with anything you want to prepare.
