Succulent for Thanksgiving? This low carb stuffing is the perfect addition to those who want a low carb Christmas dinner, or perhaps to be low carb for the entire year. The stuffing is not so much for the low-carb diet as it is for those who are looking for a healthier alternative for the holiday.
Every Thanksgiving, Low-Carb stuffing is a staple on the traditional American dinner table. Whether it’s on the appetizers table, or in the middle of a large, smothered turkey, stuffing is the “go-to” side dish when it’s time to serve up the meal. And, while some people don’t think much of the stuffing, others consider it one of the most important parts of the whole meal!
Thanksgiving is just about the only time of year I cook a low-carb stuffing. It’s also the time of year I end up eating a lot of carbs, whether I’m eating at home or out with family and friends, so this year I’m making a special low-carb stuffing.
