Healthy & Happy Holiday Recipes
I made this low sodium stuffing recipe this year for our third Thanksgiving in a row cooking in our house! This year we stayed and cooked at home, just the two of us. Last year my family came in from Chicago and we celebrated together, making a big meal with a farm fresh turkey from down the road. And the year before, we cooked at home after a giant snow storm caused us to miss our flights out to Calgary for our wedding reception. We may have missed our own wedding reception, but everyone else still went and had a blast! 🙂

- Onion
- Celery
- No Salt Vegetable Stock or Bouillon: I love this no salt vegetable base for my recipes because it has a great flavor and is lower in sodium. I only develop my recipes with low sodium ingredients so the ingredients shine. You can always add salt to a recipe if it needs it, but it’s almost impossible to take it out!
- Garlic
- Herbes de Provence: my favorite spice blend! This French blend has a mix of rosemary, thyme, sage, and savory for a wonderful and complex flavor.
- Garlic Powder
- Ground Sage: I love adding this ground sage to stuffings, its a classic!
- Sourdough Bread: You can use homemade sourdough bread, or a store-bought loaf. Either way you will have delicious stuffing. Sourdough bread typically has less sodium that normal bread, so even buying store bought is ok (but check the labels to make sure the sodium content fits in with your dietary needs). I have a simple guide to homemade sourdough in 1 week, check it out!
- Walnuts: I topped the stuffing with walnuts with some extra crunch and delicious flavor. The walnuts bake in the oven and get all warm and toasted. I bought this giant bag of walnuts from Amazon here, and have been using them in everything!
One of the BEST Pantry Staple Holiday Recipes
This sourdough stuffing recipe is a fantastic pantry-staple meal! It uses almost all ingredients you would have in your dry pantry or cupboards. You probably already have a lot of these ingredients on hand! Keeping a well-stocked pantry makes it easy to come up with delicious and healthy meals using a few staples you can rotate.
I made a list of my Top 125 Plant-Based Pantry Staples that always keep on hand. And you can check out all my favorite pantry staple recipes on TheHerbeevore.com here. By stocking up on healthy whole ingredients you can cook delicious recipes without a trip to the store!
How Do I Make This Sourdough Bread & Sage Stuffing Recipe?
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a large pot, heat the olive oil over low heat and sauté the onion, celery, and garlic for 4 to 5 minutes until veggies begin to soften. Add the vegetable stock, Herbes de Provence, garlic powder, sage, salt, and bread. Mix well until the vegetable stock has absorbed into the bread.
- Transfer to a 13×9 baking dish and top with crushed walnuts. Bake uncovered in a 350 degree oven for 30 minutes until brown and crispy.
