PJ's Family's Crockpot Stuffing

I can’t believe we’ve never shared this recipe on the blog before, but it’s a good one!! It’s an especially good one to make this time of year, when the weather outside is frightful so cold that all you want to eat is something warm and comforting.

PJ makes his family’s famous crockpot stuffing every year for the holidays, usually at Christmas but always at Thanksgiving. It’s become a staple in our family and that’s because it’s sooooooo delicious. He got the recipe from his aunt Lisa who also makes it during the holidays, so we get to enjoy it more than once.

As our friend put it last night, this recipe is more of a “non-recipe”. We have never officially written it down before, and PJ changes it up a little bit every time he makes it, but we did our best to get the measurements right for you so that you get the gist of how it comes together. Please feel free to add however little or much of the ingredients as you like!

Also, you can watch this video to see how to make it as well!
