Nothing gets family hanging around the kitchen like the aroma of a turkey stuffed with savory dressing roasting in the oven. Drizzled with hot gravy, it tastes even better than it smells! Ingredients:
2 cups chopped celery |
1 cup chopped onion |
1/2 cup butter |
6 cups cubed day-old corn bread |
2 cups fresh bread crumbs |
1 tablespoon dried sage |
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning |
1/2 cup egg substitute |
1 cup chicken broth |
1 turkey (10 to 12 pounds) |
melted butter |
Directions:
1. In a skillet, saute celery and onion in butter until tender. Place in a large bowl with corn bread, crumbs, sage and poultry seasoning. Combine egg substitute and broth; add to corn bread mixture, stirring gently to mix.
2. Just before baking, stuff the body cavity and inside the neck with dressing. Skewer or fasten openings. Tie the drumsticks together. Place on a rack in a roasting pan. Brush with melted butter. Bake at 325° for 3-1/2 to 4 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 180° for the turkey and 165° for the stuffing. When turkey begins to brown, cover lightly with a tent of aluminum foil. When turkey is done, allow to stand for 20 minutes. Remove all dressing to a serving bowl. Yield: 8-10 servings.
