Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

Stir in chicken broth, parsley, and 1/4 cup water; heat to boiling. Spoon vegetable mixture and bread cubes into bowl with sausage mixture, toss to mix well.

3. Spoon stuffing mixture into 13" by 9" glass baking dish, cover with foil and bake 45 minutes or until heated through.

Note: To toast bread cubes, bake in a preheated 400 degrees F oven for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Helen Says: We had this on Canadian Thanksgiving, my daughter found it in an old Good Housekeeping that I had saved, we loved it.

Description: "This crowd-pleasing holiday accompaniment is chock-full of veggies and toasted bread chunks, with a classic diced-apple- and-sausage mixture. If you like, prepare the stuffing a day ahead and refrigerate, covered, overnight. If you plan to stuff your turkey"
