Steps:

In 10-inch skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion, celery and carrots; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender.
In large bowl, mix bread cubes, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Add broth and butter-onion mixture, stirring until desired moistness (stuffing will become a little more moist during roasting because it will absorb juices from turkey).
Use to stuff 1 (14- to 18-lb) turkey. After stuffing turkey, place any remaining stuffing in 1- or 2-quart casserole that has been sprayed with cooking spray; cover and refrigerate. Bake stuffing in casserole with turkey for last 35 to 40 minutes of roasting time or until thoroughly heated.

STELLA'S TRADITIONAL TURKEY STUFFING

Traditional stuffing for an 8-person family Thanksgiving feast. Mom got up early to prepare and it was well worth it. It seemed that the stuffing always went first, which caused her to make a double batch. One in the bird, one in a glass bowl. However eating the stuffing from the bird cavity was always preferred!

Steps:

Combine turkey innards, diced celery, diced carrot, and bay leaf in a pot. Season with salt and pepper and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook for 1 hour, removing liver after 30 minutes. Remove and discard neck, tail, and bay leaf. Remove remaining innards and put with the liver to cool. Keep broth in the pot.
Meanwhile, heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir ground beef in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
Combine bread cubes, beef, chopped celery, apple, walnuts, poultry seasoning, oregano, sage, thyme, and rosemary in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
Chop cooled innards into small pieces. Add to the bread mixture and mix until everything is evenly distributed, adding in broth mixture (including cooked celery and carrots) and oil to moisten the dressing to desired texture. Stuffing is ready to bake in the oven or stuff in the bird.
