Sausage and sage add a gourmet taste to this stuffing. It's perfect for large family gatherings, but you can also save some for later. —Lorraine Brauckhoff, Zolfo Springs, Florida

  • Prep: 35 min. Bake: 45 min.
  • Yield: 24 Servings
35 45 80

Ingredients

  • 1 package (12 ounces) reduced-fat bulk pork sausage or breakfast turkey sausage links, casings removed
  • 3 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons prepared mustard
  • 4 teaspoons rubbed sage
  • 1 tablespoon poultry seasoning
  • 2 loaves (16 ounces each)day-old white bread, cubed
  • 1 loaf (16 ounces) day-old whole wheat bread, cubed
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 2 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) reduced-sodium chicken broth

Directions

  • In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook the sausage, celery and onion over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain. Remove from the heat; stir in the mayonnaise, mustard, sage and poultry seasoning.
  • Place bread cubes in a large bowl; add sausage mixture. Combine eggs and broth; pour over bread cubes and stir gently to combine. Transfer to two 3-qt. baking dishes coated with cooking spray.
  • Cover and bake at 350° for 30 minutes. Uncover; bake 12-18 minutes longer or until a thermometer reads 165°. Yield: 24 servings.

    Editor's Note: If using this recipe to stuff poultry, replace the eggs with 3/4 cup egg substitute. Bake until a meat thermometer reads 180° for poultry and 165° for stuffing. Allow 3/4 cup stuffing per pound of turkey. Bake remaining stuffing as directed in the recipe.

Its healthy recipes like this that give healthy recipes a bad name. Dry, bland and tasteless.

I would definitely make this recipe again, although I'd leave out the sausage. My family does not like sausage in their thanksgiving stuffing.
