From Carrie Morey's Hot Little Suppers cookbook

You may already know that biscuits make the perfect dinner rolls, especially our hot little biscuit size! But biscuits can be incorporated across your holiday tables, like in a savory biscuit dressing (or “stuffing” for those outside the South). Made from day-old buttermilk biscuits, this recipe ensures that no biscuit goes to waste! With crispy, crunchy day-old biscuits, and only a handful of other ingredients that are always on hand for holiday cooking, this dressing is simple and delicious. You’ll want to make it every year for turkey dinner – and maybe even outside of the holiday season!
Inspired by Carrie Morey's Hot Little Suppers cookbook Cornbread Dressing recipe, Carrie incorporates butter, onion, celery, sage, broth, and biscuits, of course!
