ITALIAN SAUSAGE STUFFING CASSEROLE
From the folks at the Johnsonsville Sausage company, a highly seasoned unstuffed-stuffing. It's really a one dish meal. The original recipe called for adding a small can (2 1/4 oz) of chopped black olives but I omitted that as we don't care for the taste. Feel free to add it back.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place the cubed bread on a baking sheet. Bake for 7-10 minutes, or until dried and toasted. They should be golden brown. Transfer the bread cubes to a very large bowl.
- Add 2 cups of broth (I used vegetable) to a large sauce pan. Heat on medium-low.
- Meanwhile, in a large skillet heat the oil over medium heat. Cook the sausages over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until browned and cooked through, breaking up the sausage with a fork while cooking. I didn't find ground sausage so I bought sausage in the casing and removed it from casing before browning it. Use ground sausage if you found it.
- In another skillet, add the other part of oil and butter (I used vegan butter sticks to keep it dairy-free)in medium heat.
- When it is heated up, add the onions, celery, parsley, sage, rosemary or thyme. Add just a dash of salt and pepper, if you like. Saute over medium heat for 10 minutes, until the vegetables are softened.
- Add the browned sausage, toasted bread to a large bowl. Next, add in the onion mixture.
- Add in one cup of the broth. With a large spoon, gently stir the ingredients together. Add in the whisked egg. Gradually add the remaining broth 1/4 cup at a time until the stuffing is wet. With each addition, gently stir and pat the stuffing ingredients together. Take care not to over mix it, you're just combining it all together. The goal is to have it wet, but not soaked and drippy. You may need the whole 2nd cup of broth and you may need less. You may even need a little bit more than a full 2 cups of broth.
- When the broth is soaked in and combined, spoon the stuffing into a 2qt. baking dish (or 9x12-inch baking dish); then cook for 30-40 minutes, or until it's heated through and golden brown on top. Check it at about 25 minutes and if it seems to be browning too much, cover with foil paper. I baked mine a full 40 minutes. Every oven is different. You may even need to bake it a few minutes longer to get that nice golden brown and have the inside fully heated through.
- Remove from the oven. Sprinkle with additional parsley, then serve.

SAUSAGE-STUFFING CASSEROLE
I developed this recipe, it is really a wonderful moist casserole. Adjust the jalapeno peppers and the cayenne pepper (if using) to taste. To save time you can prepare the stuffing mixture and/or cook the sausages up to a day in advance, the remainder of the recipe is very easy, just layer and bake! Do not add any salt to any part of this recipe as the sausage meat, soups and stuffing mix already has salt added. If desired the sausage meat can be replaced with cooked diced chicken or turkey.

Steps:
- Butter a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish.
- For the stuffing; melt butter in a large skillet, add in onions, garlic, celery, green bell pepper and jalapeno peppers, saute, stirring with a wooden spoon for about 6-7 minutes or until well softened.
- Season with black pepper and cayenne (if using, do not add in any salt to the mixture the stuffing mixture already has added salt in it).
- Add in the mushrooms, then the 2 cups chicken broth and 1 cup water (or use 3 cups water) bring to a boil; remove from heat.
- Add in the 3 packages stuffing mix; toss with a fork to blend, cover and let sit for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes toss again with a fork.
- Layer half of the stuffing mix into the bottom of the buttered baking dish.
- Then top/sprinkle with the cooked sausage; push the mixture down with a back of the spoon to pack evenly.
- In a bowl whisk together eggs with milk and one can undiluted mushroom soup; drizzle over the sausage in the dish.
- Sprinkle/top with remaining half of the stuffing mixture.
- Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese, then spoon and spread the remaining undulted mushroom soup on top (the soup does not have to cover the top completely, just use a spoon to spread out as best you can).
- Bake uncovered for about 1 hour or until the middle is set.
Tips:
- Use high-quality Italian sausage: This is the star of the show, so make sure you use the best you can find. A good Italian sausage will have a nice balance of meat, fat, and spices.
- Don't overcook the sausage: Overcooked sausage will be dry and crumbly. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10 minutes.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will give your casserole more flavor and texture. Some good choices include celery, onion, carrots, and mushrooms.
- Use stale bread: Stale bread will absorb more of the broth and other ingredients, resulting in a more flavorful casserole.
- Season the casserole well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of salt, pepper, and other spices. This will help to bring out the flavors of the other ingredients.
- Bake the casserole until it is golden brown: This will give it a nice crust and help to keep it moist.
Conclusion:
Italian Sausage Stuffing Casserole is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a comforting and satisfying meal, give this casserole a try. You won't be disappointed!
