Nothing says Thanksgiving like holiday stuffing.

Bonnie Taub-Dix, a nutrition consultant, media trainer and author of "Read It Before You Eat It - Taking You from Label to Table," said she has been making Thanksgiving dinner for more than 25 years. This "challah-day" stuffing reigns supreme as her top choice. 

This dish includes hints of sweetness from the challah, cranberries, apricots, chestnuts and figs. The mushrooms, garlic and onion balance things out with flavor, while fresh herbs like parsley, thyme and rosemary (or whatever you have on hand — dried herbs work, too) round out the mix.

Experiment with nuts, as well, which add a nice element of texture to the dish. If you're a vegetarian, swap low-sodium chicken broth for low-sodium veggie broth.
