Recipe substitution
I have some cornish Hens to make Mireille's Cornish Hen recipe this weekend. Her stuffing calls for rice in it along with nuts, raisins, chicken broth, spices, etc. The end part sounds yummy ... any suggestions for what I can sub for the rice? I think there needs to be something else to help it "stick" together, but I am on a low carb meal plan at the moment ...

Perhaps...
Brown rice has a lower glycemic index, thus a lower "carb" count. Maybe you could also sub some chicken sausage for the rice, and use an egg to hold it all together?twinklebree
