I used to make the same old dressing every year for Thanksgiving. About 10 years ago, I decided to jazz up my recipe by adding pork sausage. Now everyone requests this dish for all our holiday meals. —Ursula Hernandez, Waltham, Minnesota

Ingredients

1 pound sage pork sausage
1/2 cup butter, cubed
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, finely chopped

In a large skillet, cook sausage over medium heat 4-6 minutes or until no longer pink, breaking it into crumbles; drain. In a stockpot, melt butter over medium heat. Add mushrooms, celery and onions; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat.
