Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing

I tried this out for Thanksgiving hoping it would be as good as the reviews reported and it did not disappoint.  I'll be including this one again!

Sausage, Apple and Cranberry Stuffing
adapted from allrecipes.com

Ingredients:
1-1 1/2 bags Peppridge Farms Country Style bread crumbs
1/2 lb. ground turkey sausage
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup chopped celery
2 1/2 teaspoons dried sage (or 5 t. fresh sage)
1 1/2 teaspoons dried rosemary (or 3 t. fresh rosemary)
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 t. fresh thyme)
1 Golden Delicious or Granny Smith apple, cored and chopped
3/4 cup dried cranberries
1/3 cup minced fresh parsley
1-2 cups low sodium chicken or turkey stock
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degree F (175 degree C).  Transfer bread crumbs to a large bowl.
In a large skillet, cook the sausage and onions over medium heat, stirring and breaking up the lumps until evenly browned. Add the celery, sage, rosemary, and thyme; cook, stirring, for 2 minutes to blend flavors.
Pour sausage mixture over bread in bowl. Mix in chopped apples, dried cranberries, and parsley. Drizzle with turkey stock and melted butter, and mix lightly.
Transfer to a 9x13 in pan and bake, covered, for 30-40 min.  Uncover and bake an additional 15 min.  Alternately, place mixture in a slow cooker that has been sprayed with Pam.  Cover and cook on low heat for 3 hours.
