Our Thanksgiving meal was never complete without my dads oyster stuffing.

After torturing me with this performance, he chopped the oysters and added them to the other stuffing ingredients.

I had a familiar feeling when I read Marilyn Monroes stuffing recipe.

It was the same one Id get watching my dad make stuffing.

Regardless, I channeled my best poker face and set to work recreating Monroes unique recipe.

How To Make Marilyn Monroe’s Stuffing

It begins with sourdough bread.

This comes off as in place of using stock or drippings for added moisture.

While the bread soaked, I cooked the livers, boiling them and then chopping them into small pieces.

Butter is always a good idea.

I baked the stuffing for 30 minutes and was treated to the most delicious smell as it baked.

It was so fragrant that my neighbor knocked on my door and asked me what I was making!

Since Im the neighborly sort, I invited her in and explained what I was up to.

When I pulled it out of the oven, we looked at each other and agreed it was beautiful.
