You can never have too much stuffing.

So you are going to need three different types of stuffing. Stuffing is easy, you can make it up just like punk band names, except that punk bands names use gross stuff like phlegm and maggots and stuffing uses yummy stuff like sausage and bacon.

If you need to name your punk band, do it here. If you need to make stuffing just take a bunch of yummy stuff, combine it with other yummy stuff, add some bread cubes and sage and you have stuffing. This year I did the following...
Roasted Garlic, Bacon, and 2 Types of Mushroom Stuffing
  • 3 heads roasted garlic
  • bunch of bacon, chopped
  • white mushrooms, chopped
  • shitake, portebello, or any other type of mushrooms that won't trip you out, chopped
  • turducken stock
  • toasted bread cubes
  • sage, thyme, oregano, pepper
Fry bacon, add mushrooms and saute. Toss in roasted garlic cloves. Combine fried stuff with bread cubes in casserole dish. Season. Ladle enough stock over the mixture to moisten. Cover with tin foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Sausage, Leek, Apple, and Almond Stuffing
  • 2 packs bulk sausage meat
  • 1 large leek, white part only sliced
  • 4 Granny Smith apples, cored and sliced
  • 1 pack sliced almonds
  • turducken stock
  • toasted bread cubes
  • sage, thyme, oregano, pepper
Fry sausage. Add leeks and saute. Toss in apples and almonds. Combine fried stuff with bread cubes in casserole dish. Season. Ladle enough stock over the mixture to moisten. Cover with tin foil and bake at 350 for 30 minutes.

Onion, Pinenut and Parsley Stuffing with Dried Cranberries
  • 3 onions, chopped
  • 1 pack of pinenuts
  • 1 bunch parsley, chopped
  • big fistfull of dried cranberries
  • turducken stock
  • toasted bread cubes
  • sage, thyme, oregano, pepper
You know the drill by now.

speaking of band naming, we should still rock out "Meatdrunk" some time soon. I think we'd have a warm following in the greater Vancouver area. This blog cooking blog os a great idea. I would love to see a good vegetarian dish on this thing in the near future.
