Stuffing is great in general, and when you add sausage, it’s amazing. This recipe is for stuffing a Thanksgiving turkey. We always get the red bag of Pepperidge Farm–the cubes. If that’s not available, we’ve used Mrs. Cubbison’s as a substitute.
If you’re making this gluten free, you’ll want to use a gluten free stuffing mix or try making stuffing rice instead.

Stuffing
Sausage is the key to an amazing stuffing.
Ingredients
- Pepperidge Farm Seasoned Cubes (the red bags–2 packages for a big turkey) (or gluten free stuffing mix)
- 4 c. boiling Water or Chicken Broth
- 1 lb. Jimmy Dean Sausage
- ½ c. Butter
- 1 – 1 ½ c. Celery (small chop)
- 1 – 1 ½ c. Onion (chop a little finer than for spaghetti)
Directions
Brown the sausage and add cube of butter to melt. Add celery and onion (usually chopped in food processor), and cook a little. Add all this to stuffing cubes, then add boiling water. Stir well but gently, being careful not to mash the stuffing. Make sure not to make too wet because turkey has juice. See turkey recipe for instructions on stuffing the bird. With leftover that won’t fit in turkey, place in microwave dish for later and refrigerate. When ready to heat the stuffing from the smaller dish, add chicken broth or water and microwave for 10 minutes.
