One month of school behind us and now we're looking forward to the fall weather, spending time with our families, and kicking off the holiday season with Thanksgiving! When I get to make Thanksgiving dinner I like to surprise everyone with something new that will leave everyone wanting more so when Canadian Turkey Farmer's sent this recipe I knew it was a keeper!
Sausage and Pistachio Stuffed Turkey Breast Roast Recipe
This recipe is great for a twist on the traditional turkey dinner, you still get the same great taste but an easy portion for smaller families. I like how the recipe is simple and can easily be made for a formal meal or any night of the week, plus the leftovers are delicious! With this recipe, we're making Canadian Turkey the centerpiece of our family celebrations!
Turkey breast is a really popular cut and widely available at your grocer. It’s easy to prepare and customize with your favorite flavor profile. This tasty recipe is a great place to start.
Sausage and Pistachio Stuffed Turkey Breast Roast Recipe
Ingredients
For Turkey
- 1 large boneless turkey breast butterflied
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ tsp salt, pepper, garlic powder
- 8-12 leaves fresh sage
For Stuffing
- 3 slices rye diced
- 1 sweet onion diced
- 2 turkey sausages
- 3 tbsp milk
- 2 tbsp parsley chopped

- Spread out breast meat. Season with olive oil, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Sprinkle with fresh sage leaves.
- Spread stuffing evenly across meat.
- Gently roll meat up into a roast. Tie to secure.

When it comes to holiday meals whole turkey and turkey parts are an excellent choice for holiday meals and recipes. I love how far a whole turkey goes, you can start with a traditional turkey dinner, and from there, the possibilities are endless including soups, stir fry, sandwiches, and even salads.
Did you know Turkey Farmers Care?!
Turkey Farmers of Canada and its member organizations have donated to Food Banks Canada for the purchase of turkey by rural food banks at Thanksgiving.
