The Great Stuffing Debate Review and $150 Visa Gift Card Giveaway

When it comes to holiday meals, I usually go straight for the sides. And when it comes to stuffing, I can be a little picky. I like my stuffing savory--no fruits, no nuts, and if there's mushrooms, and better yet--bacon mixed in, all the better!

To celebrate the upcoming holiday season and all the stuffing people across the nation will be consuming, Swanson Broths' The Great Stuffing Debate has launched!

Argue all you want, but the debate won't be settled until the dishes hit the dining-room table. So grab your plate and join the debate. Each week, we'll release new debate questions along with recommended stuffing recipes and more. So make yourself at home. The debate has been served.



I was fortunate to receive a Visa Gift Card to purchase some Swanson Broth and everything else I needed to make stuffing just the way I like it.


After browsing the recipes on The Great Stuffing Debate website, I decided to go with the Quick & Easy Stuffing, primarily because I'm not the greatest cook, and the easier the recipe it is, the better.

This stuffing would also serve as my "practice" stuffing for a real holiday meal.

I've made stuffing several times before as a side dish for dinners, but I've always used water. Using the Swanson Chicken Broth instead of water made the stuffing so much tastier.

The stuffing was moist and delicious, and the Quick & Easy recipe really was quick & easy!

Now that I'm fairly confident in my stuffing-cooking skills, I'm going to try the Sausage & Mushroom Stuffing recipe next (with a little twist, using Portuguese Sausage instead of Pork Sausage).

Visit The Great Stuffing Debate to find great stuffing recipes and to see what the question of the week is!

Win: One lucky winner will receive a $150 Visa Gift Card to purchase Swanson Broth and everything else you need to make the perfect stuffing!
