This Thanksgiving stuffing is fantastic! It is very flavorful and fresh-tasting. This recipe will stuff a 10-pound turkey (which serves six) plus extra. I replaced the usual pork sausage with much healthier turkey sausage. Other dried fruits may also be used in place of cranberries.

Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C).

Spread the white and whole wheat bread cubes in a single layer on a large baking sheet.

Bake for 5 to 7 minutes in the preheated oven, or until evenly toasted.

Transfer toasted bread cubes to a large bowl.

In a large skillet, cook the sausage and onions over medium heat, stirring and breaking up the lumps until evenly browned.

Add the celery, sage, rosemary, and thyme; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes to blend flavors.

Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl.

Mix in chopped apple, dried cranberries, parsley, and liver.

Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter, and mix lightly.
