The holidays are coming fast, and this Weight Watchers Turkey Stuffing is perfect for those special meals. Do you need a good Weight Watchers recipe to help you get through these big meals, then this is definitely it!
Weight Watchers Turkey Stuffing
I enjoy food a lot and have trouble limiting my portions. It makes it a little easier for me to eat healthier options during the holidays, like Weight Watchers Pumpkin Pie Tarts and this yummy stuffing. I also love that this recipe doesn't have a ton of ingredients…EASY is best!
INGREDIENTS FOR WEIGHT WATCHERS TURKEY STUFFING
Stuffing recipes have some basic ingredients, and this one falls into that category. The main difference is using turkey sausage and high-fiber, lower-calorie bread to help keep the points down!
- turkey sausage
- onion
- celery
- Nature’s Own Life Double Fiber Wheat Bread (or other 1 pt per slice dense wheat bread)
- egg
- 2 % milk
- poultry seasoning
- salt & pepper
- Nonstick Cooking Spray
HOW TO MAKE WW TURKEY STUFFING
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spray your baking dish with nonstick cooking spray if desired.
- In a large skillet, cook the sausage until it is fully cooked.
- Add in the onion and celery and cook until the vegetables are soft.
- Next, stir in the bread and stir to coat it with the fat from the sausage.
- In a separate bowl, mix the remaining ingredients and pour over the sausage-bread mixture.
- Let this soak in for a little bit.
- Transfer the mixture to a 9 x 13 baking dish.
- Bake for 30 minutes uncovered.
Weight Watchers Points
I used the Weight Watchers Recipe Builder to calculate the points.
I calculated 12 portions for this recipe by cutting my 9 x 13 baking dish into 12 pieces. One portion is a serving.
That means that each serving is only 3 points per serving for the blue, green and purple myWW plans.
On the current Weight Watchers Program (2023), it is 3 points per serving.
That isn't bad at all for a side dish at a holiday meal!

I hope you like it!! It is easy to make too!
I have vegetarians in the family…. do u think this recipe would still be good without the meat??
I think it would be fine…maybe add more veggies!
Do you think I could use broth instead of milk?
I would think you could try it…but I haven’t done it so I can’t say for sure. Let us all know if you do and how it turns out.
Can’t you stuff the turkey with this?
I haven’t tried it….in fact I have never stuffed a turkey, LOL! If you try it..let me know!
I am trying to figure out measuring cup size of 1/12 of a serving of a 9×13 pan.
I don’t know what cup serving size it will be. I divide my pan into 12 equal portions for this recipe.
Hi Jamie, I’m going to use your recipe tomorrow for our Thanksgiving dinner! I’ll let you know how I do. I do like a moist dressing, so I may have to add some broth.
Could this be a make ahead dish?
