The fall Holidays are not complete without that tasty dish of Stuffing/filling. My mother always made the best Bread Stuffing but due to her dementia she no longer can. She would fry the Bread Stuffing in butter before baking it. It is a family favorite along with the Giblet Gravy she always made to serve with it.

This low-fat Stuffing is so delicious and you don’t miss all the butter and fat. You can use a bit more butter and whole eggs of you would like. Using more fat will make this dish a THM XO which is still on-plan.

I love to stuff chicken breasts with this bread stuffing, place them in a baking pan, and pour the gravy over all. Bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

Bread Stuffing THM-E

• Filling:
• 10 cups whole grain sourdough or sprouted bread cubes
• 1 ½ cups celery, diced
• 2 Tablespoons butter
• 1 cup onions, minced
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons poultry seasoning
• 1 ½ cups fat free chicken broth
• 1 cup eggs whites or egg beaters
• 1/8 teaspoon saffron
• Gravy:
• 2 cups fat-free chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons sprouted flour
• salt and pepper to taste
• tiny pinch saffron
• Saute celery and onions in butter until tender. Toss with bread cubes. Blend eggs whites with 1 1/2 cups broth. Add seasonings. Pour over cubes and stir gently. Pour into a greased casserole dish. Bring 1 1/2 cups broth to a boil in small saucepan. Combine flour with remaining broth until smooth. Whisk into hot broth. Add seasonings. Cook for 2-3 minutes. pour over stuffing. Cover tightly. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Serves 8.
• Stuffed Chicken Breast Cut a chicken breast in half, pound to flatten. Wrap each chicken breast around 2/3 cup of bread filling. Place in a baking dish. Bake for 25-35 minutes.

You can use any kind of sourdough or sprouted bread in this recipe. If I have loaves that do not get as nice or get eaten right away I cut them in cubes for stuffing. I keep a 2 gallon ziploc bag in the freezer to add any cubes, too. When I want to make stuffing the cubes are all ready for me.
