Sausage Stuffing

Step 1

In medium sized bowl, thoroughly combine all sausage ingredients. Its easiest if you use your hands to mix.

Step 2

Heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook until brown and crumbly, about 10 minutes. Allow to cool.

Step 3

Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add onion, celery, and minced herbs (not the parsley). Stir to coat in the melted butter and then saute until they start to turn golden brown, about 10 minutes.

Step 4

Add broth to skillet and bring to a simmer. Remove from heat and set aside. Allow to cool enough that mixture is cool to the touch.

Step 5

Meanwhile, beat egg with 1/4 cup chopped parsley in a large bowl; add cubed bread and toss to coat. Pour the cooked sausage and cooled vegetable broth mixture over the bread and toss. Transfer to a buttered baking dish and dot with remaining two tablespoons of butter.

Step 6

Cover and bake 30 minutes at 375 degrees F; uncover and bake until golden, 30 more minutes.
