Ingredients

Italian Stuffing

Ingredients

4 and 1/2 lbs of cubed bread.. I use 2-3 day old Italian bread.

2 stalks of celery, diced

1/2 pound of Italian sausage, cut into 1/2 inch pieces

2 medium onions, diced

1 tsp of crushed red pepper

2 Tbl of rosemary

2 Tbl of dried oregano

4 Tbl of dried sage

Fresh peel of one lemon, grated

1 qt. of chicken broth

6 eggs

1 tablespoon of chopped fresh parsley

salt, to taste

extra virgin olive oil

Directions

In a large skillet, brown sausage over medium heat. Remove sausage into a bowl and drain fat, but reserve the fat. Stir bread cubes, and seasonings into the sausage.

Pour reserved sausage drippings and a little olive oil into a large skillet, and heat. Add onions and celery - cook until they are tender and golden. Add onions and celery to the stuffing.

In medium bowl, beat eggs well. Stir into the stuffing mixture. Slowly stir in chicken broth, and mix well. If stuffing seems too dry, add just a little extra virgin oil. Be sure the dressing does not become soggy.

For dressing, place mixture in greased baking pan, and bake at 325F for 40 minutes. For stuffing, fill breast cavity of turkey, and bake turkey as recommended.

Sounds familiar just like what we make but we add some mozzerella cheese to the mix.

Best stuffing in the world, isn't it?

Great idea with the cheese, Janet! Around here, we believe cheese makes every dish even better. ;-) Yes, we think it's the best, especially this year - since I'll be adding mozzarella!

We like to use the hot sausage with casings removed. Yum! Great recipe!

Your stuffing recipe is almost exactly the same as my Dad and Grandma's recipe.
We will have to follow your's, and add the lemon zest.
Thank you for sharing your recipe!
