Ingredients
For 1 people
1 3/4 cup(s) seasoned stuffing mix
1 cup(s) dried apricots
3/4 cup(s) almonds, sliced
1 cup(s) onion, minced
1 cup(s) celery,minced
1/2 cup(s) apple
1whole egg, beaten
1 egg white, lightly beaten
2 cup(s) vegetable broth, heated
2 tablespoon(s) butter
Directions
Reconstitute the apricots by soaking in a small bowl of hot water for 10 minutes; drain, blot and snip into slivers with kitchen scissors.
Toast the almonds in a small dry skillet, stirring constantly so they don't burn. Remove from pan. In the same skillet, heat the juice. Add the celery and onion and simmer for 5 minutes.
Using a large mixing bowl, toss the stuffing mix with the almonds and apricots, and then add the celery-onion-juice mix. Stir in the egg and egg white, then add the vegetable broth slowly, stopping when the mixture is holding together, but not soggy wet.
Coat a 2-quart oblong baking dish with cooking spray. Mound mixture into dish, then dot with pea-size pieces of butter or margarine. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
