don't miss this deliciousness

tonight is our neighborhood thanksgiving potluck and food drive.

it is one of my favorite neighborhood activities, and since it is thanksgiving i am (of course) making my mom's stuffing. 

it is delicious -

and yes, i am biased, 

but if you are going to eat highly caloric carb-y goodness, this is your dish.

if you are not into sausage or are a vegetarian, use sauteed mushrooms instead, 

and substitute veggie broth for the chicken.

you can easily double or triple this for loads of guests.

cornelia's stuffing

(you can adjust ratios to taste- 

ie, add more liquid to make stuffing more moist or 

add more sausage because it is more delicious)

• 1 1/2 loaves white or wheat bread (i buy the cheapest store brand bread)
• one onion, chopped
• 5-7 stalks of celery, chopped
• 1 pound mild italian sausage 
• 1 cup milk
• 1 egg
• 1 TBS Bells poultry seasoning
• 2-3 bouillon cube dissolved in 1 cup warm water OR same amount chicken broth 
• cooking spray 

directions:

• cube bread into large bowl
• saute onion & celery and set aside (or dump over cubed bread)
• remove sausage from casing unless bulk sausage & saute/crumble
• add crumbled sausage to bread, onion and celery
• combine 1 cup milk, egg & poultry seasoning. pour over stuffing and mix until well distributed 
• pour broth or bouillon/water mixture over stuffing. (add water or more broth if desired to make more moist)
• Put in greased baking pan or stuff into a turkey. if in a pan, bake at 350 for 20 minutes covered, then bake 20 more minutes uncovered.

Yum! Enjoy! 

Best with gravy and shared around a table
