Shirataki Rice Stuffing
Since I am gluten free (for health reasons) I cannot have the traditional bread stuffing with lots of sage and thyme that I grew up with. In my Thanksgiving dinner, I use rice stuffing instead. I have been playing around with shirataki rice as a replacement for regular rice. It is mostly starch, almost no carbs, almost no calories. This works out really well in the Shirataki Rice Stuffing.
I have included this recipe in my Low-Carb Gluten-Free Midwest Thanksgiving meal plan. This is a meal plan for a complete Thanksgiving dinner including portion sizes, shopping lists, make ahead schedule, and adjustments for dairy, tree nut, and egg allergies, vegetarians, and further carb adjustments to take it into the keto zone.

Shirataki Rice Stuffing
Ingredients
- 1 8-ounce packages shirataki rice
- 1 cups diced onion
- 1 cups diced celery
- 4 ounces mushrooms chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans
- 4 Tablespoons butter
- 1 teaspoons poultry seasoning (or more if you like a strong herb flavor)
- 1 cups chicken or vegetable broth
Instructions
- Prepare the shirataki rice according to package instructions. In a large skillet, melt the butter. Add the rice, onion, celery, mushrooms, and pecans. Sauté until the veggies are soft.
- Stir in the poultry seasoning. (If making ahead, you can stop here and put the veggie mix in the fridge until later.)
- Add the broth to the skillet and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until the water is mostly gone, about 15 minutes.
