Slow Cooker Turkey Stuffing

I decided to do the stuffing in the slow cooker this Christmas! It is cooking as I type, so I will see how it turns out. This recipe serves four people but can easily be doubled or quadrupled (I have a 4 quart slow cooker, so you would obviously need a bigger one for a bigger batch of stuffing). Cook on high for about 4 hours---seems easy enough, so hopefully it all turns out well!

Ingredients:

-4 slices of whole grain bread, cubed
-1 apple, peeled and chopped into small pieces
-1 small sweet onion, peeled and chopped into small pieces
-1 cup walnuts, chopped
-1/8 cup butter, sliced up
-1/8 cup olive oil
-1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
-2 tsp salt
-2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
-1 tsp dried thyme
-1 tsp dried oregano
-1 tsp dried basil
-1 tsp dried parsley

Directions:

Place everything in the slow-cooker. Stir to mix well. Cover and cook on high for about 4 hours. If it needs it, remove the lid and allow to cook uncovered for the last half hour.
