Meat stuffing is a flavorful mixture used to fill meats, vegetables, or baked dishes, originating from European and Middle Eastern cuisines. Traditional recipes combine ground or minced meat—often pork, beef, or lamb—with breadcrumbs, eggs, and aromatic herbs such as sage or thyme. Onions, garlic, and celery are usually added for depth, while nuts, dried fruits, and spices provide regional variations. This protein-rich dish contains essential nutrients like iron and B vitamins from the meat, but it can be high in saturated fats and sodium, depending on preparation. Using lean meats, whole-grain breadcrumbs, and fresh herbs can enhance its nutritional profile. Meat stuffing is a festive staple, prominently featured in holiday meals, and offers versatility, pairing well with roasted poultry or serving as a standalone baked dish. Moderation and mindful ingredient choices can help balance its rich, indulgent flavors with healthier options.
