Ingredients

• 1 lb loaf sourdough bread, sliced
• 1 medium onion, diced
• 2 stalks celery, diced
• 3 tablespoons butter, margarine or olive oil
• 4 teaspoons fuller's sage herb seasoning mix
• 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley

• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 dash pepper, to taste

Directions

1. 1

   Cut the loaf of sliced sour dough bread into 2 inch cubes and dry in 250 degree oven until stale (Crusts maybe removed but not essential).

2. 2

   Heat a small skillet, add the butter, margarine, or olive oil and sauté the diced onion and celery until soft.

3. 3

   Stir in 4 teaspoons Fuller’s Sage Blend, ¼ cup chopped parsley, and the fresh sage leaves. Put dried bread into a large bowl. Add onion mixture and stir. Add the salt and pepper.

4. 4

   Lightly beat the eggs and pour over bread.

5. 5

   Add heated turkey or chicken broth and mix to thoroughly combine. More liquid may be added if the bread cubes appear to be dry inside. Add just enough to make the mixture moist but not soggy!

6. 6

   Stuff the cavity of the turkey loosely just before roasting or butter a large casserole pan and bake the stuffing for about 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Roast the stuffed turkey according to roasting directions for a stuffed turkey.
