The Chicago Sun-Times is offering a suggestion that could vastly improve your Thanksgiving meal, or turn this year's family gathering into a disaster of Michael Bay proportions. Depending on your point of view. Behold, the recipe for slider stuffing, which calls for "18 White Castle hamburgers (no pickles), chopped into 1-inch pieces," along with more usual suspects like button mushrooms, chicken stock, butter, onions, celery and sage.

Nutrition facts per serving: 162 calories, 10 g fat, 5 g saturated fat, 22 mg cholesterol, 13 g carbohydrates, 6 g protein, 259 mg sodium, 1 g fiber

Oddly, the recipe does not seem to clarify what the size of a serving is, just that the recipe makes 12 of them. Whatever they may be.
