Down East Turkey Stuffing

Bread Recipes | Potatoes Recipes

Yield: 8-10 servings

This is a favorite family recipe handed down from my grandmother who came from Nova Scotia.

  • 1 stick butter or margarine
  • 4 or 5 potatoes, mashed
  • 4 onions, chopped fine
  • 1/2 loaf stale bread, torn
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon parsley
  • 4 tablespoons savory
  • 2 eggs

Add butter to mashed potatoes. Mix in onions, bread, salt, pepper, parsley and savory. Add eggs when mixture has cooled down. Stuff turkey and cook accordingly.

This is also good just baked, uncovered, in a dish for 30 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees.

Also from Nova Scotia, live in BC, no one here makes this type of stuffing, use dried bread cubes mostly. This is just great...thanks – Reviewed by Jean Serres

Also learned this recipe from my mother. We were from Nova Scotia as well. Never found anything better to replace it. – Reviewed by Joyce Pizzingrilli

My grandmother's from Nova Scotia where some of the best cooks on the Atlantic side of the continent reside--she's one of them. She has made this recipe for years. Yum! – Reviewed by Genevieve Kennedy

This is very close to my Grandmother's recipe. She was a lifelong resident of New Brunswick, a marvelous cook and even better baker! – Anonymous Review
