COOKBOOK: Women’s weekly ROAST cookbook
I dont enjoy eating chicken stuffing unless its my own. I find it tasteless with a whole lot of breadcrumbs to increase the volume.
Now chorizo stuffing was calling out my name! I couldn’t get enough in the cavity! Absolutely delicious! It will certainly be one of the nicest stuffings I’ve made!
Enjoy
