Ingredients

1 loaf dry bread, torn or cut into small pieces
2 tablespoons ground sage
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
2 cups chopped celery
12 cup chopped onion
1 dozen well beaten egg
3 cups water
1 tablespoon chicken soup base, see note

Directions

1

NOTE: Chicken Soup Base is a concentrated paste purchased in the grocery store which is very rich in flavor.
2

If you cannot find it in your store substitute with 3 chicken bouillion cubes and 2 Tablespoons of cooking oil which will give you a reasonable substitution.
3

Combine all ingredients making sure that everything is blended.
4

Avoid overmixing so that bread doesn't get too mushy.
5

Stuff and Bake according to favorite method.
6

I love using the popular baking bags since it is so easy and gives a wonderfully moist product at the end.
7

NOTE** servings are approximate-- it easily serves 12-15 people with some left-overs.

Time depends on method used-- I put down 3 1/2 hours since that is the average time if inside a 20 pound turkey in a baking bag.
