This moist, hearty sage stuffing is nicely seasoned with sausage and fresh mushrooms. Sometimes I use it to stuff my Thanksgiving turkey and other times I bake it separately. —Betty Kay Sitzman, Wray, Colorado

Ingredients

  • 1/2 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
