Holiday Avocado Stuffing Recipe

Instead of falling back on the usual casserole, try an elegant twist with Holiday Avocado Stuffing to impress your guests. This colorful recipe combines traditional stuffing ingredients ­ onion, celery, stuffing mix -- with fresh avocados, an unexpected twist. Cooked avocado adds new dimension to conventional stuffing and its mild, nutty flavor becomes more prevalent when heated.
