About Roast turkey with stuffing

Roast Turkey with Stuffing is a classic dish often enjoyed during festive meals, particularly in North American cuisine during holidays like Thanksgiving and Christmas. The centerpiece, a whole turkey, is seasoned and roasted to perfection, offering lean protein that's low in fat if the skin is removed. The stuffing, traditionally made with bread cubes, herbs, onions, celery, and sometimes sausage or dried fruits, provides a flavorful accompaniment, though it can be higher in calories and sodium depending on preparation. Variations may include nuts, quinoa, or whole grains for added nutrients. Rich in vitamins B6 and B12, turkey supports energy metabolism, while its minerals like selenium and phosphorus contribute to bone health and immunity. However, indulgent preparations involving buttery basting or sugary stuffing additives can increase the fat and sugar content. Opting for fresh herbs and whole grain stuffing components can enhance the nutritional benefits while maintaining its savory appeal.
