Ingredients
-
1 loaf whole wheat bread
-
1 package Organic Prairie® Italian Pork Sausage
- 1 large yellow onion, diced
- 4 large celery stalks, diced
- 2 teaspoons minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon celery salt
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1 teaspoon dried sage
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 cups chicken or beef broth
- Fresh sage and thyme (optional)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F.
- Cut the bread into cubes that about 1-inch in diameter or just tear up small pieces with your hands.
- Add the bread cubes to a sheet pan and bake for 10 to 15 minutes to dry out the bread.
- Remove the bread from the oven and turn oven up to 375°F.
- Dice the Italian sausages, set aside.
- In a large skillet, add 2 tablespoons of butter and the minced garlic. Melt over medium heat.
- Add in the celery, onions, and diced sausage. Sauté until the onions are translucent and lightly browned and the sausages are lightly browned. Remove from the heat.
- Melt the remaining butter in a small saucepan. Add in the celery salt, rosemary, sage, and thyme and mix together. Remove from the heat.
- In a medium bowl, add the chicken broth and eggs and whisk together.
- Transfer the bread cubes, sausage mixture, melted butter, and egg mixture to a large mixing bowl and stir to combine.
- Transfer to a 9x13-inch baking pan. If the bread is still dry, add more chicken broth until it’s completely coated.
- Bake at 375°F covered for 30 minutes, and then remove foil. Turn the oven up to 400°F and bake uncovered for 10 more minutes or until the edges are golden brown.
- Garnish with chopped fresh sage and thyme (optional).
