- 2 1/2 - 3 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 3 1/2 - 4 teaspoons sage
- 1 1/3 cups melted butter

- 1/2 cup chopped macadamia nuts (optional) or 1/2 cup pecan nuts (optional)
- 2 -3 cups chicken broth
- Saute onion, celery, and mushrooms in butter.
- Heat broth until hot, but not boiling.
- Combine bread cubes and seasoning; then add sauteed vegetable mixture.
- Sprinkle bread mixture with hot broth and toss until cubes are damp, but still rather dry.
- Add apple and nuts, if using.
- Pack lightly in turkey, baking any extra stuffing in an ovenproof pan for 45 minutes to one hour at 350 degrees.
- You may also cook stuffing in a crock pot on low for 3-4 hours, stirring frequently, lightly adding broth, if stuffing becomes dry.
- Happy Thanksgiving!
