Dried Cranberry And Apple Turkey Stuffing - cooking recipe

Ingredients

5 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, chopped
1 -2 tablespoon fresh minced garlic (optional)
4 -5 cups diced bread
2 granny smith apples, peeled, cored and chopped
1/2 cup white wine
1/2 cup chicken stock (more if needed)
1 cup chopped toasted pecans

1 cup chopped fresh parsley, to taste (1 cup measured after chopping)
1/2 cup dried cranberries (can use more)

salt and pepper

Preparation

In a frypan, melt butter, saute onion and garlic until soft (not brown), about 5 minutes.
Add in the bread cubes and herbs, stirring to combine.
Stir in apples, wine, stock, pecans, cranberries and parsley (if the mixture seems too dry add in just a bit more stock, not too much!).
Cool to almost room temperature.
Add in egg or egg whites.
Season well with salt and lots of pepper.
Stuff into the turkey.
