There are some great ideas there for stuffing. Fortunately I have two food processors and I use them all the time for everything.
i am glad to hear the kamado didn’t make it onto the truck. That sounded like a major disappointment.

I’m all for rustic bread crumbs too! Lovely stuffings – I definitely wants to try some of these. Thanks.

These all look so good! Thanks for posting – with time enough for us to think and prepare!

Haha, what a Christmas disaster! These sides all sound so yummy! A perfect accompaniment to turkey. The apple and apricot one is very similar to the one I make every year 🙂

Yeah, I once served black turkey for Thanksgiving when I attempted to use the grill to cook it. Never again. I love preparing the big turkey dinner but, to be honest, my stuffing leaves something to be desired. I’ve tried a number of recipes, Charlie, and they all seem to fall flat. I struggle to get 1 right and come here to see you’ve 3 good ones. Life is so unfair! Although I’d welcome all 3, I think I’d prefer the Sage & Walnut recipe. It doesn’t taste like stuffing if there’s no sage and I like the idea of a little crunch in the mix.

HAHAHA i couldn’t stop laughing at your last sentence don’t overstuff otherwise the legs will pop 😛 That’s what happened to us last year hehe I really like the sound and look of the lemon and quinoa stuffing! I’m already starting to plan our Xmas party but I think I need to source a turkey before I can think about stuffing xx

A perfect post right before Thanksgiving for us Americans. Each one sounds delicious, so good that I wouldn’t know which to choose… good thing some friends are doing the turkey this year!

I grew up on a hot Christmas dinner too, and my parents still insist on one to this day. I can’t stand it as it was always well over 40C and too hot for a roast. I get a reprieve every other year as I go to the in-laws. They prefer the cold ham & turkey route. And this year there are only a few of us so we are off to a restaurant. Someone else can cook. These recipes look great though.

I love all of these stuffings! I think I might have to make the preserved lemon and pine nut quinoa for dinner one night this week. Dried apricots – now that sounds like a very interesting addition to a stuffing. You’ve got me rethinking my stuffing Charlie.

Hi Charles, definitely operator error. They do work well and dad did produce some great meals with it but not that Christmas! I thought you would like the walnut and sage stuffing because it has celery leaves in it and I think you once made a dish using celery leaves and I left a message letting you know that I don’t know of many recipes using the leaves but they’re definitely edible.
