Who doesn’t love stuffing? It gives great flavor to your turkey and also, in my case, held everything together, especially coated in gravy! Being on Keto, traditional bread stuffing will wreck your ketosis and diet. Fortunately for me, I came across this recipe last holiday season and now not only do I have awesome cheesy bread, I can use that “bread” to make a kick-ass stuffing too!

Who says you can't have "bread" on Keto?
