What to do with extra stuffing? Here's the easy answer. I use thighs for this recipe, but breasts might work, as well. Thighs? Breasts? This diva loves them all, dah-ling.

Bruschetta Bake

1 can diced tomatoes with liquid

6 oz. stuffing mix

1/2 cup water

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 1/2 lbs. chicken thighs cut into bite-sized pieces

1 tsp. basil

1 cup mozzarella, shredded

In a cute bowl, mix tomatoes, stuffing mix, water, and garlic.
Put chicken in a greased baking dish.
Sprinkle with basil and cheese.
Top with stuffing mixture.
Bake at 400 degrees 40-45 minutes until chicken is done.

Make it a meal: Serve with steamed green beans.
