This is Phoebe’s recipe. You can either stuff the turkey or bake in a 2 qt. casserole dish which is my preference. To me, stuffing the bird and then digging the stuffing out is not worth the effort.
Saute together:
1 c. chopped celery
1 chopped onion (I use white onion)
1/2 c. melted butter
Mix together and add:
1 tsp. salt
2 eggs, beaten
3 cups of milk
1/4 tsp. pepper
Cube one small loaf of bread and mix together with above mixture.
Bake 1 hour at 325 degrees. This is my preference of baking-a little lower temperature, a little longer but below is Phoebe’s recommendation.
You can always add mushrooms or chestnuts if so desired.
Serves 8.
The note on my card from Phoebe says, “Stuff the fowl or put in baking dish and bake 30-40 minutes at 350 degrees (until lightly browned). I usually stuff the bird and wrap the rest in foil, seal edges tightly, and lay in the oven with the turkey.
