My husband's family LOVES dressing, so the giblets are ground with 1# of bacon and an onion; then add sage, a dash of nutmeg, eggs and croutons (1/2 seasoned & 1/2 plain) and LOTS of warm water. Use your hands to 'squish' it altogether!!! It is so moist when done. They want more stuffing than will fit in the turkey cavity and under the neck skin. The neck is saved to add with the carcass for turkey/homemade noodle soup. My sister-in-law thought she would add a little 'color' to the dressing one year and added shredded carrots............which did not get approval from the siblings.
