~ Paxo Sage and Onion Stuffing ~

My children love having a roast dinner and it's pretty much the only time that they will actually finish everything on their plates. We have a roast twice a week, once on a Wednesday and my mum cooks that one and then again on a Sunday and that is when I cook it.

Not everyone likes stuffing though so it's just me, the hubby, my 5yr old and little one who have stuffing with our food and this is the reason why I have never tried to make my own stuffing or puffin as it's been renamed by my 5yr old!

I always just buy Paxo stuffing as it so convienient as whilst Asda do have their own brand stuffing theres barely any difference in the prices between the two so I tend to stick to Paxo if its available.

Paxo is so easy to make up. Just empty the packet of dry mix into a bowl and add boiling water. It does give the instructions on the packet but I just do it by eye now, it's easy to do, you can tell if it's too dry or not anyway.
Now you can either make it into little stuffing balls or use it to stuff the chicken, which is what I prefer to do. I just open up the chicken and use a wooden spoon to spoon the stuffing mix into the bird then when it's getting too full I use my hand to prress it in neatly. If there's any remaining mix I will roll them into ball and place them around the chicken a bit later on.

I find the taste is what I expect of stuffing and I quite like it. It's nice and herby and pairs well with the chicken.

I don't think roast dinners would be the same without it!

Thanks for reading :o) x
