Ingredients:

Serving

6 cups torn bite-size pieces of day-old homemade-style white bread, lightly oven toasted
4 oz cooked breakfast sausage, crumbled
3 tbsp unsalted butter
2 onions, diced
4 celery ribs, diced
1 carrot, shredded
3 tbsp minced fresh sage leaves
2 tbsp minced fresh thyme leaves
1 tbsp minced fresh rosemary leaf
8 oz presoaked dried cranberries
1 (10 oz) jar peeled whole roasted chestnuts, coarsely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh parsley leaves
1 -3 cup low sodium chicken broth or 1 cup vegetable stock
2 large eggs, beaten to blend

Directions:

Place bread and sausage in to a large bowl.
In a large skillet saute the onions, the celery, the sage, the thyme, and the rosemary, in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until the vegetables are softened about 5 minutes, add the chestnuts, cranberries stirring, for 1 minute.
Add the vegetable mixture to the bread and sausage, tossing the mixture well, stir in the parsley and salt and pepper to taste, add as much broth just to soften and let the stuffing cool.
Mix in eggs.
The stuffing may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. (To prevent bacterial growth do not stuff turkey cavities in advance.).
Makes enough to stuff a 12- to 14-pound turkey with extra to bake on the side.
Or bake covered in a well buttered 15 X 10 X 2-inch glass baking dish at 350 degrees for 30 minutes then remove foil for 15 minutes to crisp the top.
