Tips and Suggestions

  1. use any cream soups that can be used IE: mushroom, broccoli, cheddar, chicken, or even a can of gravy will work
  2. add a splash of hot sauce for a little heat or cayenne pepper to the stuffing
  3. always use boneless meats
  4.  other meats we like are: boneless chicken, boneless turkey breast, or boneless steak
  5. when using different meat try another canned pie filling or fruit, whole cranberries with turkey or chicken and peach pie filling go great with them
