Hi this looks wonderful, how many servings would the recipe make?
I just made this, and one batch didn’t make enough for Thanksgiving, so I recommend doubling this, especially if you are making it for a crowd.
This is how i usually make it and its so good! Never made it ahead of time, this year im having a lot more people than usual so im trying to plan ahead. How early can you make ahead of time? And should you leave out the French’s fried onions? Thanks!
I like to add a couple of shakes of Worcestershire sauce to the recipe to give it a little extra flavor.
