Ingredients
8 slices whole wheat bread1.5 tbsp butter2 cups chopped onions3 cups chopped celery1 pound lean ground porkSpice mix (I usually mix these together before adding):1 tsp salt1/2 tsp thyme1/2 tsp savory1/2 tsp mace1/4 tsp turmeric1/2 tsp sage1/2 tsp parsley 1-2 tsp poultry seasoning (optional)2 whole eggs 2 egg whites1-2 cups of chicken broth (depends on how dry the mixture is)
Directions
Cube bread and lightly spray with cooking spray before putting in oven at about 275 degrees to dry out into "breadcrumbs". Time varies depending on how fresh the bread is so keep an eye on it. Put bread cubes in a big bowl when done.

Saute onions and celery for a few minutes in butter. Add pork and cook until no more pink remains. Thoroughly mix in seasonings in the last few minutes of cooking. Pour meat and veggie mixture over bread cubes.

In small bowl, whisk eggs and egg whites until well mixed. Pour over meat, veggie and bread mixture along with about half a cup of chicken stock. Then continue adding more until mixture is moistened but not "wet".

Spoon into large casserole dish, cover with foil and bake at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes.
