Low Sodium Turkey Stuffing Recipes

TURKEY STUFFING WITH VERY LOW SODIUM

Steps:

• Bake Italian Milano Sourdough Bread in bread machine. Slice ten 3/4- to 1-inch slices from loaf. Toast each side on an ungreased baking sheet in your oven under the broiler until just golden brown. Cool and cut into small 1/2-inch cubes. You'll get about 16 cubes from each slice of bread.
• Melt butter in large saute pan or 6-quart pan.
• Saute onion, celery, mushrooms, apples, and pecans together.
• When vegetables and apples are cooked through, add bread crumbs and spices.
• Coat with buttered mixture and add apple juice to moisten. Add optional dried apricots.
• When ready to bake, put mixture into lightly oil-sprayed baking dish (9 x 13) and bake at 325 degrees Fahrenheit for 20-30 minutes. If it's been refrigerated, heating time will take longer.
• Serve hot.
