At Christmas time the stuffing is always such a highlight on the table, its a recipe that's gone through the generations, I even managed to incorporate it into my weekly meal preps minus the bread and bacon, the spirit never leaves the tastes of this dish and memories of racing to the table to see who gets the first spoon and critique of the dish!
