Ingredients
Instructions
- Prepare stuffing mix as directed on box.

Tips & Substitutions
For a twist, consider using leftover roasted chicken or turkey from Joyce'S Chicken or even adding vegetables like spinach or bell peppers for extra flavor. If you don't have Swiss cheese, Gruyère or cheddar can be excellent substitutes. Make sure to press the stuffing firmly into the pie pan to create a sturdy crust that holds the filling well.
