STUFFING - THE CLEAR WINNER
Looks like stuffing is the clear winner, although potatoes - mashed and sweet - come in second.
This evening my husband, due to the madness of college football, was last to get into the kitchen for dinner. We were having leftovers again, but no one was complaining. When hubby arrived, he saw only cranberry sauce, stuffing, gravy and turkey remaining. The mashed potatoes and vegetables had been consumed. In his hunger, he was forced to try my stuffing which he had avoided for three days. He likes his Mom's, will only eat his Mom's, and makes every attempt not to eat carbs. But his Mom is in Greece, and he was hungry.
"The stuffing is pretty darn good, honey."
Wait, I think my head is spinning. I asked him to repeat.
"Nothing." Uh-huh.
He liked it. He ate it. It's all gone. He conceded.
You see, from all the comments I have read and by what unfolds in my own kitchen, Stuffing is indeed the clear winner (and I am pretty happy too).

I love the stuffing! I'm a true carbs girl all the way. So, when my husband turned into an Atkins and South Beach dieter, long ago, we were at war! Carbs are great. ;-)
My mom makes a wonderful Pennsylvania Dutch style stuffing dish with potatoes in it. It's just mouth-watering yum! I have yet to steal her recipe, or borrow, since she loves to take the honors.

My mom made a special "zucchini stuffing" this year and we brought a vat of it home. The Hub sniffed around it, but waited until I'd tried it before he would go for it (wuss). Fifteen minutes later the entire vat was gone -- and Hub was looking guilty. You know what? It was some darn good stuffing, too!
