1 pound white bread, cut into ½-inch cubes
¾ pound Italian sausage (a combination of sweet and hot is nice)
¼ cup margarine
1 onion, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
2 Granny Smith apples, chopped
¾ cup chicken broth
Salt and pepper to taste
2 eggs, beaten

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place the bread cubes in a large baking pan and bake for about 12 minutes or until golden. Transfer to a large bowl. In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, brown the sausage and then add to bowl with bread. Add the margarine to the pan and sauté the onions and celery for a few minutes. Add apples and sauté briefly. Add onions, celery and apples to bowl. Add the broth to the pan and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add this to bowl and mix well. Season with salt and pepper and mix in the eggs. Place in a greased 9 x 13-inch dish. Reduce oven to 325 degrees. Bake, covered, for ½ hour. Uncover and bake an additional 30 minutes.
