Raisin-Pecan Stuffing

Raisin-Pecan Stuffing
A Facebook live presentation by Jaime Laurita and Margaret McSweeney inspired this Thanksgiving stuffing. Turned out so good.
Big bites of celery, mushrooms and walnuts made this a really fantastic treat. It was so fun making this in my new Dutch oven, which cooked everything together beautifully.
