Creole-Stuffed Turkey

4 cups cubed corn bread
2 cups cubed crustless day-old whole wheat bread
1 cup chopped fully cooked ham
3/4 cup smoked kielbasa or Polish sausage
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped celery
3 tablespoons finely diced onion
2-1/2 teaspoons Creole seasoning
1/2 cup egg substitute
1 to 1-1/2 cups chicken broth
1 turkey (8 to 10 pounds)

In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients; add enough broth to moisten.
Just before baking, loosely stuff the turkey. Skewer turkey openings; tie
drumsticks together. Place breast side up on a rack in a roasting pan. Bake,
uncovered, at 325° for 3-1/2 to 4 hours or until a meat thermometer reads
180° for the turkey and 165° for the stuffing, basting occasionally with
pan drippings. (Cover loosely with foil if turkey browns too quickly.) Cover
turkey and let stand for 20 minutes before removing stuffing and carving turkey.

Creole-Stuffed Turkey cont.

*(You may substitute the following spices instead of the creole seasonings: 1
teaspoon each paprika and garlic powder, and 1/4 teaspoon each
cayenne pepper, dried thyme and ground cumin.) Editor's Note: Stuffing may
be baked in a greased 2-qt. covered baking dish at 325° for 70 minutes
(uncover during the last 10 minute). Stuffing yields about 6 cups.

Yield: 6-8 servings.
