Common Questions:

What Can I Substitute The Bread Crumbs With If I Am Gluten Free?

If you are looking to replace the bread crumbs in this recipe with something that is gluten free there are several options available. First, there are gluten free bread crumbs available to purchase (or you can make your own by using the heals or stale gluten free bread). Alternatively we have had great success using panko bread crumbs, ground up Parmesan cheese crisps as well as ground up pork rinds. As with anything when you cooking gluten free check your labels to make sure they don’t contain gluten.

Can I Use Other Vegetables In This Recipe?

You can easily substitute other summer squash (such as yellow squash) in this recipe for the zucchini.

Can I Use Something Other Than Cream Of Celery Soup?

If you are not a fan of cream of celery soup you can also use cream of chicken soup or cream of mushroom soup in this recipe. If you are on a gluten free diet there are “cream of” soups available on the market that are gluten free. You just need to look for them.

You can also use this recipe for Cream Of Anything Soup Mix which can be used in any recipe that calls for canned cream of type soups.

      Any suggestions of what to replace the can of cream of celery? I saw that you could swap to cream of chicken but I cannot eat anything processed so I can’t use any of these.

      Shalon I’ve not used rice flour before, but I have used both Parmesan chips ground up and pork rinds ground up to use in place of bread crumbs so it would be gluten free.

    I also love my crockpots. I look for the appliances at ebay because I much prefer the older models with just the three settings of WARM, LOW and HIGH.

    How would I adjust the wet ingredients as I can’t find or they don’t make 8 oz. stuffing any more. I found 6 oz. box. Plan on making this real soon.

      Hi Mary Ann, it looks like Stove-top changed their packaging size! What a bummer. I think this recipe should work with 6 ounces of stuffing mix. But you could also try adding about 1/4 cup of plain or seasoned bread crumbs.

    Thank you

      Hi Kristin, while we have not tested this recipe doubled I don’t see why it couldn’t be doubled. In fact I don’t think you will need to cook it much longer since zucchini tends to cook pretty quickly.
