Turkey dressing, also known as stuffing, is a savory dish traditionally served alongside roasted turkey, particularly in American and European holiday meals. Common ingredients include breadcrumbs or cubed bread, onions, celery, butter, poultry seasoning, and herbs like sage or thyme, often moistened with broth. Variations may feature additional components like nuts, dried fruit, or sausage for added richness and flavor. While hearty and flavorful, turkey dressing can be high in calories and fat depending on the recipe, especially when butter and fatty meats are used. However, it provides some nutritional benefits, such as fiber from whole-grain bread and antioxidant-rich herbs. For a healthier version, recipes can emphasize whole-grain ingredients, low-sodium broth, and plant-based fats. While mainly enjoyed during festive occasions, moderation is key to balancing its indulgent qualities with nutritional needs.
