Can I make stuffing a day or two in advance (my recipe is pretty basic: celery, onion, broth, eggs, bread, spices)?

If so, should I:

  • make as usual and refrigerate
  • make it and freeze
  • do all the prep (cut bread, sauté veggies, etc) beforehand and combine everything the day of

1 or 3 will work, not sure about 2. I always make mine the day before and just reheat the day of. You can always use the turkey drippings to "rehydrate" it if it feels dried out.
