Celery, apple and walnut stuffing



Recommended Posts

Celery, apple and walnut stuffing

  • 100g (4oz) quinoa
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • (40g) 1.5 oz margarine (I'd use butter)
  • 350g (12oz) celery, finely chopped
  • 1 dessert apple, roughly chopped
  • 100g (4oz) chopped walnuts
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper

Place the quinoa in a pan and cover with Water. Bring to the boil and cook for about 15 minutes or until the grain is soft. Drain.

Meanwhile, fry the onions in the margarine until soft. Add the celery and walnuts and continue cooking for 5 minutes. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Season well and use to stuff the neck cavity of the turkey.

*Me personally I'd skip the margarine and use butter. And instead of Water I'd use chicken broth or something with some flavor. Also skip the walnuts and add water chestnuts, apples to cranberries. Looks like you can change it up alot to your personal liking. The rest sounds good but I don't have any idea on the nutritional value of anything.

This was absolutely wonderful!!! Loved in at Thanksgiving and will make it for Christmas!! I also used the chicken broth instead of butter....I stay away from butter all together...And it had so much flavor.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
