Mom's Vegetarian Stuffing

"Mom makes great stuffing - if you can get some! It's usually gone before it goes around the table, so I think she should double the recipe... I always get some, because she sets some aside for me (the only vegetarian) before she stuffs the bird. Feel free to add more or less of things, that's how Mom cooks, so this is an estimation based on memory."

  1. 3 people kept trying to pick out the raisins. They made the flavor somewhat off.<br/>Needed some minced garlic and a lot of poultry seasoning. Doubt I'd try this again
     
  2. Excellent stuffing. A tasty combination of fruits and vegetables. I used thick sliced Texas toast bread purchased on the reduced bakery rack. Used the olive oil option for sauteing the vegetables, substituted a dash of sage for the summer savory, and parsley instead of lovage, because I did not have savory or lovage on hand. Think these ingredients would be a good variation for my recipe #146597 for stuffing balls.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I'm a now vegan who used to make one heck of a souvlaki. I love cooking, I was a huge fan of Moosewood and Molly Katzen prior to going vegan (although that has nothing to do with my choosing the name Katzen - that's just what my German Grandma has called me all my life.) Aside from cooking, I also love scuba diving, cycling, politics, and reading.
