Description

This classic dressing recipe is just as delicious as its counterpart, only better because we made it without a single animal product in sight. Hooray!

Ingredients
  • 4 cups hot water
  • 2 tablespoons Better Than Bouillon No Chicken Broth
  • 1/2 cup long grain brown rice
  • 4 cups bread, cubed (substitute gluten-free bread for gluten free dressing)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 cup onion (chopped)
  • 1 cup celery (diced)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons dried parsley
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon allspice
Instructions
  1. 1

    Dissolve the Bouillon in 4 cups of hot water.

     

  2. 2

    Add two cups of the now-prepared Bouillon to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir in the rice, reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 55 to 60 minutes, or until the rice is tender.

     

  3. 3

    Meanwhile, cut bread into cubes and spread it in a single layer on a lightly oiled baking sheet—Bake at 400° for 5 minutes. Turn the bread cubes with a spatula and continue to bake for another 5 minutes, or until the bread is crispy and dry (be careful not to burn it). Remove from the oven and set aside.

     

  4. 4

    Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and celery and sauté until tender.

  5. 5

    Remove the vegetables from the heat and stir in salt, pepper, parsley, turmeric, sage, and allspice. Add the bread and rice and fold in the remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time.

    If you prefer a dryer dressing, reduce the total liquid by about half a cup.
  6. 6

    Spoon the mixture into a lightly oiled Baking Dish, cover tightly with foil, and place in a 350° oven for 20 minutes. 

  7. 7

    Remove the foil and continue baking for an additional 10 minutes, or until the top is golden.
