Sorry not an actual recipe as I tend to make things up as I go along, but the last one I made had mashed sweet potato in and it was really nice.
I just chop onion and garlic- gently fry, nuts grind in processor- often cashews, homemade breadcrumbs, sweet potato and add herbs bitof chilli and buillion powder, egg to bind and put in bread tin. the sweet potato made it a lot lighter and i guess a few less calories!

We had this for christmas for the past two years. It's lovely:

And the filling for this makes a really nice nut roast too. Cook it in a 1lb loaf tin

both are really nice cold as well!

Hi Shirlton this is the one I use. These days I wrap in puff pastry and serve as individual en-croute, can also pop a bit of Gruyere or Stilton cheese on top before wrapping in pastry. I then serve as you would a traditional roast with all the trimmings.
Sorry its a bit detailed but it was typed out for someone who needed it. Hope you find it useful.

I like to use one of those packs of Christmas stuffing mixes which are meant for stuffing the Turkey and add chopped nuts to it. Then bake it in a loaf tin.
Paxo do a cranberry and chestnut stuffing which works well.
