Newburn Bakehouse contacted me to ask if I would like to share one of their Christmas recipes on my blog. I requested a vegetarian stuffing recipe and was delighted that they sent this one because not only does it look amazing, it was quick and easy to make but I added in some butternut squash and fresh parsley to further enhance the recipe.
I started making my chestnut stuffing a few weeks before Christmas a couple of years ago. Prior to that I was always very anxious in the days coming up to Christmas that I wouldn't be able to find the chestnuts and parsley, they always seemed to become extremely scarce. So now I make and freeze it a couple of weeks before Christmas Day. Then all I have to do is remember to take it out of the freezer on Christmas Eve and leave it in the fridge overnight to defrost.
