Cook's Tip
Check the stuffing ingredients
Some turkeys come with stuffing made from breadcrumbs. For a gluten-free alternative, try this Stuffed Turkey Breast, or choose a whole turkey or turkey crown without stuffing and make your own gluten-free version using the recipe below. From 23 November, you'll find our range of ready prepared gluten-free stuffing options online and in store.

SIDES & TRIMMINGS
Seasonal meats may enjoy the spotlight, but it wouldn't be Christmas dinner without all the festive trimmings. Many of these are naturally gluten-free, like roast potatoes – but side dishes such as bread sauce and pigs in blankets often contain gluten. Keep scrolling to see the delicious gluten-free alternatives in our Free From Christmas range.
