What’s The Difference Between Cornbread Stuffing and Dressing?

I honestly never heard the term cornbread dressing until we moved to Florida, I have always referred to this delicious Thanksgiving side as stuffing.

Technically by definition, the stuffing was meant traditionally to be stuffed inside the turkey or chicken for Thanksgiving while the dressing was usually baked in a pan.

It is also believed that folks in the southern states use the term dressing and folks in the northern states use stuffing.

Whatever you decide to call it, your holiday table should be graced with my amazing recipe, prepared from scratch, this stuffing is delicious and bursting with fresh ingredients.

A perfect side dish that will compliment your festive meal. You can make the cornbread a day ahead and use it to make Tofu Turkey.
