Meat Stuffing for Turkey
This is a classic stuffing for turkey, one that can't go wrong! Omit the rice if you wish, as it may make it heavier than you like and substitute the white wine for red wine for some variation! When cooking the turkey make sure you leave enough time to give it all the love and care it needs, bathing it every so often in its juices!
