MOM'S VEGETARIAN STUFFING

Mom makes great stuffing - if you can get some! It's usually gone before it goes around the table, so I think she should double the recipe... I always get some, because she sets some aside for me (the only vegetarian) before she stuffs the bird. Feel free to add more or less of things, that's how Mom cooks, so this is an estimation based on memory.

VEGETARIAN STUFFING

I take this to our family gathering for the holidays. Everyone likes it - the meat eaters don't miss the giblets. You can make it vegan by deleting the mushroom soup and increasing the broth, also use no/low fat soup if you like. Chopped walnuts can be substituted for chopped pecans.
