About Stuffing

Stuffing is a savory dish typically made from bread or grains combined with flavorful ingredients like onions, celery, herbs, and spices. It is commonly moistened with broth or butter, then baked inside poultry or separately as a casserole. A staple in holiday meals, such as Thanksgiving, stuffing has roots in European cuisine, with variations appearing globally. While stuffing can provide fiber from whole-grain bread and nutrients from vegetables and herbs, it is often high in fat and sodium due to added butter, oils, or seasoning mixes. Choosing whole grain options and reducing added fats can make it a healthier choice. Packaged stuffing mixes may contain preservatives and extra sodium, so homemade versions allow for more control over ingredients. It is a dish celebrated for its rich flavors and comforting texture, making it a beloved addition to festive meals.
