I love that this stuffing is made in the slow cooker. It's so easy and convenient. I just threw all the ingredients in the slow cooker and let it do its thing.

This stuffing is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the day before Thanksgiving and it was just as good the next day.

This stuffing is a great way to use up leftover chorizo. I had some chorizo sausage that I needed to use up, so I made this stuffing. It was so easy to make and it turned out delicious.

I'm not a fan of chorizo, so I substituted ground sausage in this recipe. It turned out great! The stuffing was still very flavorful and moist.

I followed the recipe exactly and my stuffing turned out perfect! It was so moist and flavorful. I served it with roast turkey and it was a huge hit.

This stuffing was a bit too dry for my taste. I think I would add more chicken broth or apple cider next time.
