Apple and Sausage Stuffing

It’s time to get creative and use your apples for a winter dish that doesn’t involve pie! Sweeten up your usual stuffing recipe by adding apples and sausage to the mixture for an added dose of protein.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add celery and onion and stir until softened (about 8–10 minutes).

  2. 2

    Add sausage, poultry seasoning, pepper and salt to the pan. Stir until sausage is cooked just through and you can’t see any raw sausage (roughly 7–8 minutes).

  3. 3

    Transfer to a large slow cooker, set to high. Add remaining ingredients: bread, apple, and broth. Stir, cover and cook for 2 hours.

Side notes:

For this recipe, I used Bilinski’s Chicken, Spinach and Fennel Sausage.

Other brands that work great: Trader Joe’s Chicken Breakfast Sausage, Bilinski Organic Chicken Sausage, Papa Cantella’s Italian Turkey Sausage. Using ground turkey or chicken will work as well!

*This recipe is a great opportunity to use some old bread! But if you use fresh bread, then lightly toast by baking at 275 F for 25–30 minutes, then let it cool before cutting and cubing.
