You'd be hard-pressed to find a stuffing recipe with less fat. The recipe yields 8 servings (1/2 cup per serving) with just 2.5 grams of fat per serving. For the record, 1 cup of this stuffing contains 75 calories.


Instructions


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

4. Coarsely chop the hazelnuts and set aside.


5. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and place over medium heat.


6. Add the quince and sprinkle with sugar. Cook for 15 minutes or until very brown, stirring often.


7. Add 1/2 cup broth and bring to a boil.


8. Reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until quince is tender and liquid is almost completely evaporated.


9. Add bell pepper, onions, poultry seasoning and garlic and cook 3 more minutes.


10. Remove skillet from heat and stir in 1/4 cup broth, nuts, bread cubes, salt and 1/8 tsp. pepper.


11. Spoon the mixture into a 1-quart baking dish coated with cooking spray, cover, and bake for 30 minutes.
