I have not had any stuffing to go with my Thanksgiving turkey since I started eating keto nearly 7 years ago.

I tried subbing pork rinds for the bread and OH MY! it is DELICIOUS!

Here is the finished product:

Notes

The calculated fat grams seems high so the nutritional values will depend on the products you use.
If you are egg free, the egg can be omitted.
You can use poultry seasoning instead of the individual spices - I like to mix up my own.

    This is exactly what I have been looking for for my chicken and zucchini casserole recipe which I haven’t made since I went keto and don’t eat bread. I am cooking my chicken now and can’t wait to finish it later today. I can tell it will be good!

    ta, dah, I’ve just finished making and it looks wonderful as I put it into the oven. Of course, I had to make changes according to what I remember. I added more celery and 1/4 teaspoon celery seed and portabella mushrooms that spoke to me saying, “Use me now”. I will offer up to critique when it comes out of the oven. Judi, I really enjoy and appreciate your creative abilities (bent). Thank you
