Sausage Stuffing Recipe

Ingredients:

-          12 cups white bread (about 15 slices) [Or stuffing cubes]

-          1 onion, diced

-          3 stalks celery, chopped

-          2 tbsp. vegetable oil

-          1 pound ground sausage (Italian or Breakfast)

-          2 cups chicken broth (add more if needed for desired texture)

-          2 eggs, beaten

-          ½ tsp ground sage

-          1 tsp. fresh rosemary, chopped

-          ½ tsp. fresh thyme

-          1 tsp. dried parsley

-          Salt and pepper to taste

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Slice bread in to half inch cubes. Spread bread cubes on a baking sheet(s) in a single layer. Place the cubes into the oven and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until completely dried out (keep an eye on them). In a skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage and drain of any fat. Set the sausage aside. In the same skillet, sauté the onions and celery with the oil about 5 minutes or until soft. In a large bowl, add the dried bread cubes, sausage, onions and celery, rosemary, thyme, parsley, and sage. Mix well. Mix in the beaten eggs and season with salt and pepper to taste. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes to cool and set.
