Therefore, to prepare different variants of the recipe you can use chicken or turkey, if you prefer. The preparation will be very similar, although the result may be even lighter.

The same happens with pork, turkey, or whatever you have in mind. However, when modifying the original meat roll recipe, you should be aware that the nutritional values ​​will change (although this does not have to be a bad thing).
