Fruit and Nut Stuffing image

I got this recipe off a morning show back in 1997 and it has been the stuffing of choice every Thanksgiving since. Will stuff a 16 to 18 lb. turkey.

I'm not a fan of raisins, but I love this stuffing. The sweetness of the raisins is perfectly balanced by the savory flavors of the other ingredients.
