Big Mac Stuffing
November 21, 2013
I bought extra buns because I wasn't sure how many I would need. 8 is the answer. 1 pack.
First make a delicious homemade thousand island dressing/secret sauce. Then you add a little chicken stock and an egg to this.
The buns have been toasted and the meat has been browned in butter.
Pour on the sauce!
Pickle and onion.
Then the cheese! You don't need much, it still tastes really cheesy. In other news, why don't we put cheese in stuffing more often?
Pour it into a baking dish.
This goes into a 325 oven for a half hour.
When it comes out its crisp, creamy, cheesy, bready, and just completely amazing.
In case you didn't notice, it's also over the top fatty, so eat with caution! If you have this as a side with your dinner it will be fine, just don't eat it as your whole meal like I did!
Wait aren't we forgetting something?
Oh yea, that lettuce! The lettuce is very important to make it really taste like a big mac.
If someone actually stuffs a bird with this, it will totally make my holiday season!

For: 10 Servings
- Sauce
- 1/2 Cup Mayo

- 5 Large Dill Pickle Chips Finely Diced
- 1 Teaspoon Paprika

Instructions
- Chop up the bread into small cubes and lay on large sheet pan. Bake at 325 for about 45 minutes stirring occasionally, to lightly brown and dry out. Mix all of the sauce ingredients and whisk vigorously with a fork. Be sure to take note of how amazing it tastes (possibly before adding the egg and stock). Dice up the onion and pickles and cube the cheddar. Melt the butter in a frying pan and add in the beef with ample salt and pepper. Stir the beef to brown and fully cook. Remove from heat.
- In a large bowl, mix the bread with the beef/butter mixture. Stir in the onion and pickle, followed by the secret sauce. Stir well. Pour into a baking dish. Bake at 325 for 30 minutes. While its in the oven, shred the lettuce very finely. Top with the lettuce before serving.
