Abuela’s Stuffing + My Modifications
One of my favorite Thanksgiving dishes growing up was the stuffing my abuela made. I try to make it each year, but like every other recipe, I can’t leave well enough alone. This year, I felt inspired to document my little Carma-izing journey of my grandmother’s stuffing recipe and share it with you.
Ingredients:
- 1 loaf of toasted stale bread
- 1 medium or half a large onion
- 1 lb ground meat (beef, sausage or both)
- 1 container sliced fresh mushrooms
- 1 small can olives
- 2 large eggs
- Poultry seasoning (to taste)
- Milk or chicken broth
Directions:
Step One: Prepare the bread
You need one loaf of toasted stale bread to make the stuffing. Abuela usually used french bread or sourdough. This year I found a loaf of multigrain bread with flax and pumpkin seeds and decided to use that.
