Harvest Stuffing

1. In a large skillet cook carrots, celery, and onion in hot butter or margarine until tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in salt, nutmeg, and pepper.

2. In a very large bowl combine bread cubes, apples, walnuts, and wheat germ; add carrot mixture. Drizzle with enough broth to moisten, tossing lightly to combine.

3. Place stuffing in a 3-quart casserole. Bake, covered, in a 325 degree F oven alongside turkey for 40 to 45 minutes or until heated through. Or use to stuff one 10- to 12-pound turkey. (For doneness and roasting temperatures for turkey and stuffing, see roasting chart.) Makes 12 to 14 servings (about 11 cups)
