Christmas is coming up and there's a high chance that a roast is part of your Christmas spread. Don't make the roast stuffing an afterthought. There's no need for a boring stuffing and these 5 roast stuffing recipes are versatile and can be used across different meats and I promise they'll be happily devoured!
For me, sometimes I prefer the stuffing to the meat which is perhaps an odd thing to say but it's true. And this apricot stuffing is the one that got me started on my stuffing love. This will make the stuffing as much a feature as the roast which is in this case pork but chicken also works well!
This was a stuffing I created for a Thanksgiving turkey with American flavours. This cornbread stuffing stays moist because it is baked inside the turkey (because sometimes cornbread can be dry AF). If you're serving a turkey for Christmas this is the perfect stuffing!
I'm going to make one strong suggestion: that you double this recipe or make a separate portion in a tray because it will be that popular. This stuffing was designed to be paired with ham so it's baked in a tray and is made with ham, cranberry and a bit of red wine because why not!
If you're looking for a lighter stuffing or a gluten free stuffing then kale makes a tasty stuffing for chicken and wilts them down so that the kale leaves are tasty and tender.
I saved the craziest til last. If you have the energy to make a turducken for Christmas then you're a braver and stronger soul than I. But in case you do then this pistachio and cranberry stuffing is perfect for the turkey stuffed with a duck and then a chicken!
So tell me Dear Reader, do you like stuffing? Will you be doing a roast at Christmas and which meat will it be?
