No beating around the bush: this is the best paleo stuffing recipe.I’m a fool for stuffing. Like, if you didn’t include stuffing on your Thanksgiving table, I’d just walk out without a word, dramatically tipping my chair over for effect. I’m really into it. Apparently.The problem with being mostly paleo is that um, bread isn’t allowed? It’s kind of one of those main tenants of eating primal foods that… yeah, no white bread. No whole wheat bread. No cornbread. No bread. And normally it doesn’t bother me, which is also a little weird? But stuffing… different story.
What Makes This Recipe So Good
It tastes surprisingly like “real” stuffing but is made with all healthy ingredients, like veggies and eggs. This healthy stuffing recipe is perfect with a roast chicken or turkey, making it a great side dish for both weeknight dinners and Thanksgiving. The ingredients are super versatile: you can swap out what you like and have.
Chef’s Tips
Make sure you sauté your veggies long enough for them to be really softened. This helps everything meld together beautifully in this healthy paleo stuffing recipe, just like a traditional dressing! Use the dried herbs you prefer or make your own poultry seasoning. If you’re strictly paleo, make sure you get dried cranberries that are sweetened with juice, not sugar. This healthy stuffing recipe reheats well, so you can make it ahead. You can make this entire paleo stuffing recipe in a large oven-proof skillet, or you can bake it in a casserole dish.
Try These Recipe Variations
Use chopped dates in place of the dried cranberries, or add 1/4 cup chopped dates to the whole thing! Increase the amount of celery by 1 cup and leave out the mushrooms, if you don’t like fungi.
