Ingredients

  • ½ cup shelled pumpkin seeds
  • ½ cup shelled sunflower seeds
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 cup minced onion
  • ¾ cup sliced celery
  • ¾ cup grated carrot
  • 1 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 tablespoon dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 loaf whole-grain bread, cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 1 cup wheat and barley nugget cereal (e.g. Grape-Nuts?)
  • ¼ cup dried cranberries
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 egg, beaten
  • 2 cups vegetable broth

Directions

Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spread the pumpkin and sunflower seeds onto a baking sheet. Toast the seeds in the oven until lightly browned and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

Step 2
Melt the butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, celery, carrot, cardamom, thyme, parsley, and bay leaves to the butter and cook until the vegetables are tender; remove the bay leaves.

Step 3
Toss together the toasted seeds, bread, cereal, cranberries, and vegetable mixture in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add the eggs and mix. Add the vegetable stock gradually until the mixture is moist, but not mushy. Transfer mixture to a lightly greased casserole dish.

Step 4
Bake in preheated oven until browned, about 30 minutes.
