Cranberry Stuffing
Description
With their delightfully chewy texture and sweet-tart flavor, dried cranberries are the perfect addition to stuffing. So this Thanksgiving, why not make cranberry stuffing for a lovely fruity variation on what’s otherwise a completely classic recipe.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup butter or margarine
- 3 medium celery stalks (with leaves), chopped (1 1/2 cups)
- 3/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 9 cups soft bread cubes (15 slices)
- 1/2 cup dried cranberries or golden raisins
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh or 1 1/2 teaspoons dried sage leaves
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh or 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
- 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
Directions:
- In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Cook celery and onion in butter, stirring frequently, until onion is tender. Stir in about one-third of the bread cubes. Place in large bowl. Add remaining bread cubes and ingredients; toss.
- Stuff turkey just before roasting.
