QUICK AND TASTY SAUSAGE STUFFING

This recipe uses breakfast sausage and apple juice to spice up a stuffing side dish. Orange juice and a bit zest would also work if apple juice isn’t your thing.

6 Farmer John’s Breakfast Sausage Links
2 Tbsp. Olive oil or butter
1 small Onion, chopped
2 ribs Celery, chopped
¼ cup Chopped parsley
2 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 cup Apple juice OR orange juice, chicken broth or water
1 - 6 oz. bag Mrs. Cubbison’s Corn Bread Stuffin’
Pinch Cayenne pepper, optional
¼ to ½ cup Grated cheddar or Parmesan cheese

In a skillet, brown links until no longer pink. Remove from pan, cool so that you can slice into bite size pieces. Add olive oil to skillet along with onion, celery, parsley and garlic. Stir and cook until the vegetables begin to soften. Add apple juice, stir and add stuffin’ mix. Stir and mix until the liquid is absorbed. Cover and let rest a few minutes. Put the stuffing mix In a greased 8” x 8” baking pan and top with grated cheese. Bake 350 for about 15 minutes or until cheese is melted and slightly browned.
