Ingredients for Sausage Stuffing
Sausage – Any ground pork sausage will work, I prefer breakfast sausage but mild or hot Italian sausage is also a great option. Bread Cubes – Buy cubes or dry your own bread. Sandwich bread (any variety), sourdough, or even cornbread will add flavor and texture. Broth – Use boxed, canned, or homemade chicken or turkey broth to moisten the crumbs. Variations – Celery and onion add a traditional savory flavor to the stuffing. You can add other vegetables or fruits. Try fried sliced mushrooms, cooked apples, fresh or dried cranberries, chunks of roasted butternut squash, toasted walnuts or pecans, and even a sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
