Prep 15 minutes
Cook 1 hour
Total 1 hour 15 minutes
Recipe Makes (Approximate): 8 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.

Recipe 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.
