This looks so delicious it should be illegal. Why’s it called ‘way better’?
LOL! Yes, I really hit the jackpot with this recipe. I called it “Way Better” after the Way Better Snacks Tortilla Chips I used to make this recipe. Have you tried them? AMAZING. Gluten Free, Vegan, Kosher, Organic, and SPROUTED!
I stuffed my belly with this stuffing. It was delicious!
Oh great! I am so glad you enjoyed it 🙂
Your recipe looks good and sounds delicious. I will be trying it and I’ll let you know how much we all love it. Can i use fresh marjoram instead of dried one?
Yes, you can. I only used dried herbs as fresh can be hard to come by in some areas and I wanted to make this recipe accessible to everybody. You will need just a little bit more. Just make sure to grind it up and combine it well with the other herbs for a uniform taste. Enjoy.
Glad you enjoyed it. I LOVE using ground up cauliflower in lots of recipes. It is always a winner.
Hey! this one is so delicious to try. can’t wait to make this one and fulfill my cravings on it. Perfect recipe, dear.
Thanks for sharing.

Yes, can’t wait to hear what you think. This recipe is a winner.
I made this for Canadian Thanksgiving just as the recipe was written and it was so good. Lots of chopping but it was worth it. The raw nuts gave it great texture. It made lots and the next day we ate it cold and it was just as good. Keeping this recipe within easy reach. Great vegan, gluten – free recipe!
Oh, I am so pleased you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing your experience Shelly.
