Sage Stuffing

Sage stuffing

Here the recipe for sage stuffing as promised. It is enough for a 4 pound bird, when yours is larger or smaller you have to change it that way!!

You need:
¼ cup margarine,melted
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup minced celery
4 slices bread- in small pieces
1...tbs dried sage
1...tbs dried parsley
½ cup chicken broth
salt, pepper and garlic to taste

Put half of the melted margarine in a skillet and cook onions,celery and the garlic if you use it and cook until soft. Don't brown it.
In a bowl combine bread, sage , parsley ,salt and pepper. Add onion mixture and the remaining margarine. Toss until well mixed – I use my hands -. Than add slowly the broth , little at a time until it is moist, not sodden! That is it. You can stuff your bird!

I use no salt and a little pepper, but a lot of garlic, but you should do at your taste. You can leave the garlic out , if you do not like it. Try!!

If you have fresh sage or parsley ,double the amount!!

Enjoy
