"I thought I had lost this recipe, found it on line, and am posting it here for safe-keeping. It's originally from a 2001 Bon Appetit and it's a delicious alternative to the usual turkey dressing. See my recipe #334301 for Buttermilk Cornbread to make this dressing.I plan on making it this year for my stepson's girlfriend who doesn't eat red meat or pork."
