Servings: 4

 

Ingredients:

6 cups pretzel bread cubes (about 1/2-inch cube size)

1 1/2 cups cooked quinoa

8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage

1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme

4 garlic cloves, minced

1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock

8 ounces shitake mushrooms, sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

1/4 teaspoon pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 shallot, diced

3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Equipment:

oven

baking sheet

frying pan

baking pan

aluminum foil

Cooking instruction summary:

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place bread cubes on a baking sheet and bake them for 8 to 10 minutes, just until they are firm and almost stale, but not too brown.Heat a large skillet over medium-low heat and add butter and olive oil. Add in the shallots and mushrooms and stir to coat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms soften, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add in 3/4 cup of the stock and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir in the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, then turn off the heat. Season the mushrooms with the salt and pepper.In a baking dish (9x13-inch will work, so will something slightly smaller), toss the bread cubes, quinoa and mushroom mixture together. Stir in the sage, parsley and thyme. Drizzle the remaining stock over top evenly, adding a bit more if the bread looks very dry. I like my stuffing a bit crunchy, so if you prefer your's to be super soft, add more stock. I find that with the salty pretzel bread and the stock, there is no need for more salt. Bake the stuffing for 35 to 40 minutes, until slightly golden on top. Tent it with aluminum foil if it becomes too brown.

Food Joke

Juan was driving down a country lane in his pickup when suddenly a chicken darted into the road in front of him. He slammed on his brakes, but realized that the chicken wasspeeding off down the road at about 30 miles an hour. Intrigued, he tried to follow the bird with his truck, but he couldn`t catch up to the accelerating chicken. Seeing itturn into a small farm, Juan followed it. To his astonishment, he realized that the chicken had three legs. Looking around the small farm, he noticed that ALL of thechickens had three legs.The farmer came out of his house, and Juan said, "Three-legged chickens? That`s astonishing!"The farmer replied, "Yep. I bred `em that way because I love drumsticks."Juan was curious. "How does a three-legged chicken taste?"The farmer smiled. "Dunno. Haven`t been able to catch one yet."
