Steps:

• For best results, leave bread uncovered at room temperature for a night or two, until slightly stale. Otherwise, begin by lightly toasting bread.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Cut bread into 1/2-inch cubes. Spray a medium baking dish with nonstick spray, and place bread cubes evenly along the bottom of the dish.
• In a medium pot, combine broth, celery, and onion. Cook for 8 minutes over medium heat.
• Remove pot from heat, and add mushrooms and garlic. Season mixture to taste with salt, pepper, rosemary and thyme. Let cool for several minutes.
• Add egg substitute and butter to veggie/broth mixture and stir. Pour mixture into the baking pan, evenly covering bread cubes. Mix gently with a fork. Bread cubes should be moist, but not saturated (if necessary, add 1 - 2 tablespoons water, and then mix again).
• Cover with foil, and cook dish in the oven for 20 minutes.
• Remove foil, and fluff and rearrange stuffing. Return dish to oven (uncovered), and cook for an additional 15 minutes.

HG'S CHEESY BUTTERNUT BAKE - WW POINTS = 2

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place squash in large microwave-safe bowl with 1/4 cup of water. Cover and microwave for 6 minutes. Once cool enough to handle, uncover and drain water. Set aside.

HG'S MIRACLE MASHIES - WW POINTS = 1

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil. While waiting for the water to boil, peel and cube the potato.

• Remove the pot from heat and strain out all of the water. Transfer contents to a large bowl, and add half & half, butter/buttery spread, salt, and (if you like) crushed garlic. Mash it all together with a potato masher, until completely blended. Season to taste with pepper and additional salt. Enjoy!
