Yesterday I wrote about cooking for 50 homeless guests that come to our church to have dinner and spend the night. Our nights have been in the 30’s here so it is so important for the homeless to have a warm place to spend the night.
I decided to make stuffing for 50. Last year, I made stuffing for 50 but I somehow lost the calculations . . . this year I’m blogging the recipe for safe keeping! (I don’t often lose things but when I get creative it seems like I use a lot of tiny pieces of paper . . . makes no sense but it’s how I get things done!)
I used two canisters of stuffing–with no add ins. Straight out of the box! I wanted to see if the number of servings were really accurate. When we cook for the shelter the food needs to be consistent taste, texture, and equal servings. This is why I’m taking on stuffing! No two people make it the same.
I ended up freezing the stuffing balls for a future dinner–the kids love them when they are not feeling well. I also use these “vegetarian meatballs” in soups. They aren’t actually vegetarian but they could be easily by buying a stuffing mix that doesn’t have chicken by-product in it or just use the bread and make your own vegan seasonings.
Be Blessed in your kitchen!
