SERIOUSLY GOOD MUSHROOM STUFFING
Loaded with fresh mushrooms, onions, sage, and thyme this homemade mushroom stuffing is deeply flavorful and absolutely delicious. The stuffing is savory and soft in the middle, and perfectly crisp on top. We keep this stuffing vegan and use a rich vegetable broth. We find the stuffing is absolutely delicious this way, but if you prefer, you can use chicken or turkey broth as a substitute. Butter can also be substituted for the olive oil and you can add eggs, which will provide a slightly more dense, custardy texture. See our article above and the notes section below for more about eggs in stuffing.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (176° C).
- Cut bread into 1-inch cubes, spread out onto a large rimmed baking sheet, and bake, stirring every so often, until the bread is dry and hard on the outside, 20 to 25 minutes.
- While the bread bakes, prepare and cook the vegetables. Chop the mushrooms into very small pieces either by hand or by using a food processor. If using a food processor (the quickest method), place half the mushrooms in the bowl of your food processor and pulse until roughly chopped into pieces the size of rice. Transfer to a bowl, and then repeat with the remaining mushrooms.
- Heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven or deep pot over medium heat, and then add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring often, until the liquid has evaporated and they are starting to brown, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Stir in the onions, celery, garlic, sage, and thyme. Cook, stirring often, until the onions have softened and smell sweet, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper - start with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, taste, and then add from there. Stir in the maple syrup.
- Take the pot off of the heat, and then stir in the broth. Taste the mixture once more and check the seasoning. If it needs it, add a pinch more salt. Stir in the bread cubes and half of the parsley. If after the bread is well mixed into the vegetable mixture, it still looks dry, add 1/4 cup more broth or more until the bread looks moist, but stop before there is excess liquid at the bottom of the pot.
- Transfer the stuffing mixture to a lightly greased baking dish (use a deep 8-inch x 8-inch square pan, 9-inch by 13-inch dish or similar). Cover with a layer of foil, and then bake for 30 minutes. Uncover the stuffing, and bake another 10 minutes or until the top is golden brown and crisp on top. Serve with the remaining parsley scattered on top.

VEGETARIAN MUSHROOM STUFFING
This is a great vegetarian mushroom stuffing--but meat lovers in my family love it too! I have made this earlier in the day and refrigerated it until I'm ready to cook in the oven before dinner--which can save some time. You can also used packaged bread cubes for stuffing as a time saver.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Coat a large wide pot with olive oil and toss in the celery and onions. Season with salt and cook the veggies over medium-high heat until soft and very aromatic, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for 3 to 4 minutes.
- Add the sausage and cook, breaking it into really small pieces with a metal spoon or spatula, until it's really brown and yummy, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Add the white wine and cook until it has evaporated by half. (The mix will be pretty soupy, and that's okay.)
- Combine the bread with the sausage mixture in a large bowl. Toss in the walnuts and sage and pour about half the chicken stock into the bowl. Using your hands, work to combine everything well -- really get in there and squish it up; it's fun! Add the remaining stock as needed to create a really moist mix. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
- Transfer the mixture to a 9-by-13-inch baking dish and cover with foil. Bake until the stuffing is hot all the way through, about 30 minutes, then remove the foil and bake to brown the top, another 15 minutes.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees.
- Spread bread cubes in single layer on a large baking sheet.
- Bake, stirring occasionally about 10 minutes or until golden brown.
- Transfer to a large bowl.
- In a large, heavy frying pan, melt the butter over medium high heat.
- When hot, add onions and cook, stirring occasionally until golden brown.
- About 20 minute.
- Reduce heat to medium and add the mushrooms and celery.
- Cook and stir until tender, about 8 minutes.
- Add this mixture to the bread cubes along with the parsley and tarragon.
- Add the stock to the pan you used to cook the onions, and bring to a boil scraping up any browned pieces.
- Add hot stock to the bread mixture and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Mix in the eggs.
- Either stuff the turkey and bake as usual or butter a 13X9 pan and spoon stuffing into pan.
- Cover with foil and bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes.
- Uncover and bake until top is golden brown, about 30 minutes longer.
- I think this is better baked in a pan by itself than stuffed into the turkey-- but to each his own!
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients. Fresh mushrooms, onions, and sage will give your stuffing the best flavor.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. You want them to be tender but still have a bit of a bite to them.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different herbs and spices. This recipe is a great starting point, but you can easily add or substitute your favorites.
- Make sure the stuffing is well-seasoned. Taste it before you stuff the turkey or chicken, and add more salt, pepper, or herbs as needed.
- Stuff the turkey or chicken loosely. You don't want to pack it too tightly, or the stuffing won't cook evenly.
- Cook the turkey or chicken according to the package directions. Make sure the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit before you remove it from the oven.
Conclusion:
Whether you're making it for Thanksgiving dinner or just a weeknight meal, this stuffing recipe is sure to be a hit. It's flavorful, moist, and easy to make. So next time you're looking for a delicious and versatile side dish, give this one a try!
