I created this recipe as an alternative to CORN BREAD STUFFING,using low carb Healthy Life bread to minimize the number of carbs & calories per serving. We were all very pleased with the outcome & results of this stuffing. This was a much faster alternative to making my own bread then making the stuffing as well, which I had done in the past.I added extra veggies like Cole Slaw with carrots & red cabbage, with lots of peppers and celery to also help in keeping the calorie count down. It was delicious. I chose not to serve it with Cranberry sauce, because of the number of carbs per serving.
