    3/4 lb. mild ground pork sausage
    1 medium Sweet onion
    2 medium Granny Smith apples
    1 c. celery
    2 large Garlic cloves
    1 c. toasted walnuts
    1/4 c. fresh parsley
    2 tbsp. fresh sage
    1 tbsp. fresh thyme leaves
    1 tsp. Kosher salt
    1/2 tsp. Freshly ground pepper
    12 c. assorted bread cubes
    2 1/2 c. low-sodium turkey or chicken broth
    1/4 c. melted butter

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Sauté sausage and onion in a large skillet over medium heat 6 minutes or until sausage is no longer pink. Add apples and next 2 ingredients; sauté 5 more minutes or until apples are tender. Stir in walnuts and next 5 ingredients. Transfer to a large bowl, and let cool 10 minutes.

Fold in bread and broth until well blended. Spoon into a well-greased 3-quart or 13- x 9-inch baking pan. Brush top generously with butter. Bake at 350 degrees F for 45 to 50 minutes or until top is crusty and brown. Garnish, if desired.
