Rustic Bread Stuffing with Red Mustard Greens, Currants, and Pine Nuts

This rustic bread stuffing with red mustard greens, currants and pine nuts is a vibrant vegetarian side dish that brings a sophisticated twist to any roast dinner. The use of a country-style loaf provides a wonderful texture that absorbs the savoury stock while maintaining its bite. Peppery red mustard greens and zesty lemon peel balance the richness of the butter, while dried currants offer tiny bursts of sweetness that complement the toasted pine nuts beautifully.

Ideal for a festive gathering or a hearty Sunday lunch, this stuffing is packed with complex flavours and seasonal appeal. It can be prepared up to six hours in advance and chilled, making it a stress-free option for busy hosts. Serve it alongside roasted root vegetables or a nut roast for a truly memorable meat-free feast.
