Sage and Herb Whole Wheat Stuffing
12 slices stale whole wheat bread
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1 C. finely chopped celery (include leaves)
1 tsp dried sage
3/4 tsp dried thyme
3/4 tsp dried marjoram
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
2 egg whites, lightly beaten (optional)
2/3 C. chicken broth or Butter Buds liquid
Take 8 of the 12 slices of bread and tear them into small pieces. Place the pieces in a food processor or blender and process into coarse crumbs. Measure the crumbs. There should be 4 C. (Adjust the amount if necessary.) Place the bread crumbs and cubes in a large bowl, and add all of the remaining ingredients except for the chicken broth. Toss to mix well. Slowly add the broth as you continue tossing. Coat a 2-quart casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray. loosely spoon the stuffing into the dish, and bake uncovered at 325 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour, or until
heated through and lightly browned on top. Serve hot.
