Great Grandma's Sausage Stuffing
This savory sausage stuffing is absolutely perfect as a side or stuffed in turkey
Yield: servings
Ingredients
- 10 cups dry seasoned stuffing such as Pepperidge Farms Seasoned Stuffing
- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 1 cup onion chopped
- 1 cup celery chopped
- 1 tablespoon parsley
- 1 egg beaten
- sage if desired, to taste
- 2-4 cups chicken stock
Instructions
- In a large frying pan or skillet over medium heat, cook sausage until mostly browned, crumbling with a wooden spoon or spatula.
- Add onions, parsley, and celery. Cook together for 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
- Pour dry seasoned stuffing into a large bowl or 9x13" baking pan. Add sausage-vegetable mixture, sage, and egg to stuffing in pan. Pour over 2 cups chicken stock and mix well to combine. Add more chicken stock, as desired, to reach desired moistness: 2 cups total for a drier stuffing, 4 cups for a much moister, denser stuffing (our preference).
- Stuff in your turkey and bake as directed, or bake in a 9x13" pan at 350º F for 35-40 minutes. Remove from oven and serve alongside carved turkey or chicken.
Notes
- Vegetarian: Omit sausage or replace with plant-based crumbled sausage.
- Gluten free: Use gluten free sausage or use gluten free stuffing instead of regular.
