"Stuffing was once my least favorite Thanksgiving side dish. Hold your gasps, it was simply because I was so picky that I had never even tried it. When I finally took a bite of my grandma's stuffing, I felt sad—sad I had missed out on it for all those years. In other words, stuffing is amazing and I always make extra because it might just taste better the next day. If you want to make it ahead, assemble the stuffing the day before you plan to bake it and cover with greased aluminum foil before chilling in the fridge. If you find it’s a bit too dry, add a bit of warm stock or drizzle with some melted butter before serving. To reheat, simply fry the stuffing in a frying pan with some butter and a slash of stock until hot all the way through and a little crispy. You can also reheat it in an oven at 350°F, just start with it covered until it's warmed through, then uncover and let crisp up on top."
