Introduction

I combined two different recipes to come up with this yummy bread-free stuffing recipe. It tastes just like bread stuffing but it's full of good veggies instead.

Ingredients

    1/2 of a red onion diced
    2 cloves of garlic minced
    Olive oil cooking spray 2 sprays, enough to cover the bottom of a frying pan
    1 eggplant peeled and cubed
    1 butternut squash peeled and cubed
    1 large apple, peeled and cubed, I used Fuji, but it's up to you, which you prefer
    2 cups of quinoa cooked in 4 cups of water
    1/2 cup of sugar free Craisins
    1 tsp. of ground sage
    1 tsp. Adobo seasoning
    1/2 cup of eggbeaters or 1 egg white
    water as needed to keep vegetables from sticking to the pan
    1/4 C Parmesan cheese divided
    1/4 C Almond flour divided
    1 large zucchini

Directions

Prepare all the vegetables so that you are ready to cook. Boil 4 cups of water and add quinoa, simmering for 20 minutes until water is gone. In a separate parboil the butternut squash until a fork pierces it and set aside, drained.
In a large frying pan sprayed with enough Olive oil cooking spray to cover the bottom. Brown onion and garlic. Add in eggplant and stir, add in apple and butternut squash progressively. Add water as needed to prevent sticking. Add ground sage and Adobo, feel free to experiment with seasoning. Add in sugar free dried cranberries, stirring frequently. Once all vegetables are cooked, turn off heat. Pour mixture into a casserole dish. In mixing bowl, mix together almond flour with egg white and 1/2 parmesan cheese. With a pastry brush, brush on eggwhite almond flour paste onto the top of the casserole. Spread the other 1/2 of parmesan cheese on top. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes at 350

    Good
    I made a gravy using vegetable broth with a little cornstarch rather than the Almond Flour and egg white and omitted the parmesan cheese. - 11/27/14
