Dad's Rhode Island Stuffies image

I will forever remember my Dad for making these for me when I came home during the summer! I love them with the addition of Portuguese sausage! Quahogs are a hard shelled type of clam. If you can not find them, 1 can of minced clams and 1 bottle of clam juice will work as a substitute. Chourice can be found in Portuguese...

Number Of Ingredients 11

15 quahogs , shucked and then chopped
2 loaves italian bread (day old bread)
2 Tbsp oil

These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more herbs and spices next time.
