Superbowl Shuffle 2.0?

Happy Thanksgiving indeed! Watching the Monsters of the Midway have fun is Soooo much fun! The celebrations after a touchdown are reminiscent of the Superbowl Shuffle.

I admit to being worried when I heard Trubisky wasn't going to play. I didn't realize we had a first class backup. Thank you Chase Daniel for an awesome game. Enjoy this short clip of Chase in disguise at Bears Training Camp. This year's team has been having fun since day one.

Preparing the special recipe for this game, I considered several choices. Often I go back to my childhood favorites because my mom's family is still around the Detroit area. That proved to be a good strategy on Thanksgiving when I went with my Mom's Thanksgiving Stuffing. Not everyone loves it, but it's something I'm Thankful for.

Mom's Stuffing

Ingredients:
3/4 # Chicken Livers
5 Stalks Chopped Celery
2 Chopped Onions
1/4 # Butter
8 oz can Mushrooms
1 Egg
20 oz Chicken Stock
2 1/2 C Water
2 loaves Dry Bread - put on baking sheets a few days before you prepare the stuffing
Salt, Pepper and Sage to Taste - Sage will get stronger as it cooks so don't overdo

Directions:
1.  Chop onion and celery
2.   Combine with chicken livers in food processor. Grind thoroughly.
3.  Place mixture in large pan. Add: butter, egg, mushrooms, water, salt and pepper
4.  Simmer for 45 minutes
5.  Pour over dried bread. Add sage and salt to taste

7.  Either stuff in chicken or turkey or bake at 350 for about 45 minutes covered.
