• Combine all ingredients making sure that everything is blended.
• Avoid overmixing so that bread doesn't get too mushy.
• Stuff and Bake according to favorite method.
• I love using the popular baking bags since it is so easy and gives a wonderfully moist product at the end.
• NOTE** servings are approximate-- it easily serves 12-15 people with some left-overs.

PANERA BREAD ALL-PURPOSE STUFFING RECIPE - (3.5/5)

Steps:

• To make the bread cubes, start with 1/2 loaf of leftover bread. Remove the crusts and cut the bread into 1/2-inch cubes until you have about 3 cups. Spread cubes out on a cutting board and allow them to dry, if possible overnight. The next day, place the bread cubes in a large bowl. Add onion, celery, thyme, sage, pepper and your favorite secret ingredient. Toss until they are well mixed. Add the melted butter, using the larger amount if you like your stuffing very moist, and toss gently. Stuff your 3 to 4 pound chicken or turkey and roast as directed. To prepare stuffing on its own, place it in a shallow baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 350°F for 40 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. If the stuffing dries out, you may wish to add a little chicken broth as it cooks.

ALL PURPOSE CRAB STUFFING

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients in a bowl.
• For stuffed shrimp -- butterfly them and put one tbsp of mixture on top and bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes. Use the biggest shrimp you can find!
• For mussels -- place one tbsp of mixture on top of mussels and bake at 350°F for 10-12 minutes. (I buy a two pound frozen bag of New Zealand Mussels on the half shell from Fiesta Market. Just thaw -- top with some stuffing mixture and bake. Delicious!).
• Makes enough for generously stuffing 20 large shrimp or 2 lbs of mussels on the half shell.
• Sometimes I will drizzle melted butter over each stuffed mussel or shrimp but do so very very lightly. I will melt butter in the micro and then using a 1/8 tsp measuring spoon pour on each shrimp/mussel. Too much butter and it will become too rich.
• Lightly sprinkle paprika over all.
• I love this.
