Herb and Sausage Stuffing


Sorry, I have no other photos of my stuffing. It is easy to identify though with my husband helping himself to what will become the first of five servings.  I love this rather traditional take on stuffing, with a little sausage for added flavor.  If I wanted to get wild I think some apples slices or pecans would be a delicious addition. 

Recipe
  • 16 cups stale bread cubes
  • 1-2 lb sausage (depending on your sausage tendencies)
  • 2 cups onion, diced
  • 1 cup celery, diced
  • 1 stick butter
  • ½ tablespoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh herbs (I did mostly thyme, and a bit of rosemary)
  • 2-3 cups stock (from turkey giblets or chicken stock)
Cook the sausage, then transfer to a large bowl. Cook the vegetables in the same pan. Add the butter, S&P.  Transfer to the sausage bowl, then mix in the herbs and bread cubes.  Add plenty of stock to fully drench the bread, but not leave a pool on the bottom of the bowl.  Transfer to a baking dish, and bake at 350 for about 25 minutes.
