Jason Goldstein of Chop Happy created this no-bake way to whip up Thanksgiving stuffing in a jiffy. He recommends using store-bought cornbread and leaving it out for a day so it dries out a bit. That will ensure it soaks up all the flavorful juices to create a sweet and spicy take on this holiday favorite.
