Stuffing is one of my favorite parts of Thanksgiving, but I definitely don’tn limit it to just November. In fact, this version won’t even have you thinking Thanksgiving at all. Sure, you can easily eat it with your turkey, but you won’t be able to wait a whole year to eat it again. It is inspired by the flavors of the Southwestern US. You’ve got your bell peppers, your cilantro, and you’ve got bacon. I was inspired by an episode of Bravo’s Top Chef. A couple seasons back they had a Quickfire Challenge where they had to make a stuffing without using certain kitchen tools like knives. The winner was this amazing Southwestern Stuffing. I don’t have you using liquid nitrogen and smashing things with a pot like he did, because let’s face it, you have a knife. Nonetheless, this recipe is quite tasty and I’m sure it deserved the Quickfire win. It’s an amazing creation that will have you gobbling up spoonfuls of stuffing at Thanksgiving or at any other time of the year!

I made this today but added rotisserie chicken so I would have a all in one dish and it was incredibly good! My husband loved it and said he is looking forward to the next recipe I try! Thank You for sharing you great cooking skills!!
I love this – it's like a bread pudding. It would make a great side dish for any festive occasion. Yum!
What a unique version of stuffing! This makes me want to stir up my stuffing recipe this year.
