This is an awesome recipe for a very savory, flavored stuffing all made in your slow cooker! No bland Stove Top stuffing here, this is very flavored and awesome. If you like super plain stuffing, look elsewhere. Easy and wonderful – give it a try when that boxed mix bores you! From Food.com #49609.
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups chopped onions**
- 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced celery
- 1 cup diced tart apple, peeled and cored (I used Granny Smith)
- 1/4 cup butter
- 1 tablespoon ground sage
- 1 teaspoon ground marjoram
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon savory
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme
- 12 cups lightly toasted bread, cubes (For me this ended up being 16 slices, or a loaf, of wheat bread)
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups chicken stock or 1 1/2 cups vegetable stock
**Onions can irritate some IC patients. Please make sure all these herbs are safe before using them. Personally, I’d just reduce down to fresh parsley, salt, and dried thyme.
