2 celery ribs, finely chopped
1 small onion, finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1 package (12 ounces) seasoned stuffing cubes

1/2 cup slivered almonds
1-1/2 teaspoons dried sage leaves
1-1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
1/8 teaspoon pepper
Dash salt
1 to 1-1/2 cups apple cider or juice

Steps:

In a Dutch oven, cook the sausage, celery, onion and garlic over medium heat until sausage no longer pink; drain. Add broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Add butter; cook and stir until butter is melted. Remove from the heat.
Stir in the stuffing cubes, apples, cranberries, almonds, sage, thyme, pepper, salt and enough cider to reach desired moistness.
Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish.
Cover and bake at 350° for 25 minutes. Uncover; bake 5-10 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Yield: 12 servings.
