Low-carb sage and onion stuffing - perfect for Christmas
Cheap, bread-based stuffing was originally put on a plate to fill diners up, meaning that the expensive meat went a lot further. Over time, people have added herbs and flavourings, fruits, nuts and even meat(!) to turn it into a delicious element of the meal in its own right.
For those following a low carb diet, roast dinners can be problematic. Nobody wants to miss out on a roastie or two - for many people they are the primary reason for having a Sunday lunch! While we can't de-carb a potato, we can offer up super low-carb and filling high-fibre stuffing that will help keep the carbs down and satisfy your appetite!
