Pear, Prosciutto & Hazelnut Stuffing

From EatingWell: October/November 2006

Crisping the prosciutto and toasting the nuts adds a powerful punch of flavor to the stuffing without going overboard on fat. Diamond Brand now makes packaged chopped hazelnuts, available in most major supermarkets.

Great texture; delicious flavor

I wanted a healthy alternative to traditional stuffing, without losing flavor -- this hit the spot! I took a short cut and used pre-made bread squares, but it still turned out wonderful.

Pros: Healthy, flavorful, great the next day

Excellent!

Best. Stuffing. Ever. I made this for Christmas 2010 and it was a hit. (It also fills the house with a wonderful aroma!) This can be made ahead of time and actually tastes best a day or two after you make it. If you do make it ahead of time, you may want to mist some chicken stock over the top of the stuffing and cover it with foil before you reheat in the oven, to prevent it from drying out. I had some leftover proscuitto and used it to wrap around ruby red grapefruit segments, which was a nice appetizer. This dish has earned a permanent spot on our Christmas menu.

Pros: easy to make
