Make It
1
In a 12-in. frying pan over high heat, cook mushrooms, butter, onions, celery, and garlic, stirring often, until vegetables are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Pour into a large bowl. Add a bit of broth to pan and stir to scrape up browned bits. Add to bowl.
2
Pour 2 cups broth into bowl and add bread, artichoke hearts, parmesan, poultry seasoning, and rosemary; mix well. Add salt and pepper to taste. Make a well in stuffing. Add egg and beat with a fork to blend; mix egg with stuffing.
3
Preheat oven to 325° to 350° (use temperature turkey requires; see Note below). Spoon stuffing into a shallow 3-qt. (9- by 13-in.) casserole. For moist stuffing, cover with foil; for crusty stuffing, do not cover. Bake until hot (at least 150° in center) or lightly browned, about 50 minutes.
4
Make ahead: Up to 1 day ahead, make stuffing, put in casserole, cover, and chill. Allow about 1 hour to bake.
5
Note: For turkeys 10-13 lbs., oven/bbq temperature should be 350°; for turkeys 14 lbs. and over, oven/bbq temperature should be 325°.

So we can burn on no burn days?

Define "can." You are not supposed to burn on no burn days unless you have no other source of heat.
If the weather conditions are unfavorable, I cannot go outside on Thanksgiving night or Christmas eve due the smoke from everyone burning in open fire places. Inversion layer traps the smoke near the ground. I hope for rain on those nights.

I think thats the same deal Wishing got

Had to spend $50 for the .55/lb turkey. Not hard to spend that much for the 4 of us with everything being so expensive these days.

 

[Wishing4Wings]

Oh, Ive never had fresh

I've never had canned. We bake them whole like a potato.

Thanks, Granny. I like carcass better now that I see it. I used to be a top speller. I can tell I'm losing that skill, though. Losing my vocabulary, too. Can't always pull up the word I want when talking. Scares me

Me too. It sucks

 

[CapricornFarm]

Well good night everyone!

I have noticed all Amish men are very hard workers. I think you must be too by hearing of all the work you do.

I appreciate the work ethic I was taught, but. . . . it also caused me to burn out at the end of last year. I just didn't know when to slow down and my employer loved it that I was always zooming about and getting a lot done. Going til you completely wear out is not worth it because it takes a long time to recover from burnout.
I feel better, but I'm nowhere close to being fully recovered. When I think of getting a job I know it would have to be a part time job because of the splitting head aches I get from thinking too deeply.
Being taught at a very young age to work hard (I don't remember not working) my brain was programmed to work, work, work and that's what I had been doing until the end of 2021. Now I work when I can and just rest my body and brain, the rest of the time.
It's actually pretty hard on me not being able to work regularly, it seems like I "should" be doing something "more" profitable than resting and healing!
For as long as I can remember I've had lower back problems from working too hard too young.
