Default Stuffing

I don't want to use any lowcarb bread or wheat products. What else do people use to substitute for bread? I'm thinking of trying ground mushrooms and maybe eggplant, what else might work? Usually, I use a lot of pork sausage, sage, and a few eggs in my stuffing - along with the bread. Hmmm, maybe I could use some pork rinds?

For my stuffing, I use a combination of pork rinds and Atkins l/c corn bread. I have seen a recipe for stuffing that uses just pork rinds in place of all breads I will see if I can find it.

If you're talking about chicken/turkey, I tend to use just a couple of slices of lc bread and then add in a lot of stuff like mushrooms, walnuts, etc, along with the usual celery, onion and spices.

Here is the recipe I remember seeing. It received a lot of positive comments, but I have not tried it.
Rani's Pork Rind Stuffing
(Will stuff a small roaster, double or triple the recipe if you want more.)
  • 1 3-4-ounce bag plain pork rinds, lightly crushed
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 can chicken broth
  • 1/2 onion, diced
  • 2-3 stalks celery, diced
  • herbs to taste (suggestion: thyme and sage)
  • 2-4 tablespoons butter
Cook the onions and celery in the butter until tender. Toss with the crushed pork rinds. Pour the beaten egg over the rinds and toss lightly. Add up to 1/2 can of broth until the mixture reaches the desired consistency. Bake as for regular stuffing, in a casserole or in the bird. This looks and tastes like the 'real' stuffing!
