TART AND TASTY STUFFING
Makes 6 servings.
• 2 tablespoons butter or margarine • 3/4 cup chopped celery • 1/2 cup chopped onion • 1 teaspoon dried thyme • 1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning • 1 (7-ounce) package dried herb-seasoned stuffing cubes • 3/4 cup chicken broth • 2 cups frozen unsweetened tart cherries, thawed and drained
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add celery and onion; cook 2 to 3 minutes, or until vegetables are tender. Stir in thyme and poultry seasoning.
Combine celery mixture, stuffing cubes and broth in a large bowl. Gently stir in cherries. Spoon into a lightly greased 2-quart casserole.
Bake, covered, in a preheated 350-degree oven 30 minutes, or until mixture is hot. (Or use to stuff a 12-pound turkey.)
Note: 1 can (16 ounces) unsweetened tart cherries, well drained, can be substituted for frozen tart cherries.
