Stuffing from a box has never tasted so good! With the addition of onions, scallions, celery, and diced pears you can easily upgrade a basic boxed mix and serve up something special this holiday. This semi-homemade stuffing has lots of flavor and texture. I made it for Thanksgiving and I got a lot of compliments, plus it was all gone within minutes! Your guests will never know it starts from a box — unless you tell them.
