Back home in N. Michigan, bread stuffing with sage HAD to go with the turkey on Thanksgiving. (Here in the South, people prefer corn bread stuffing).

Zucchini or yellow squash replaces the bread. Ill have to try the sage leaf in batter. Sounds a little like fried green tomatoes! But here is the traditional bread stuffing recipe (yankee style):

Thanksgiving without sage-onion dressing would be like Fall without red-yellow-orange leaves. It just would not be.
