Ingredients
  

  • 3 celery stalks
  • 1/4 white onion (chopped)
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 2 tablespoons parsley
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 pound ground sausage
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • dash pepper
  • 8 cups dried cornbread cubes
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 eggs
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 2 cups chicken stock

Instructions
 

  • Make two batches of my Healthy Sweet & Savory Gluten-Free Cornbread Recipe. Allow it to cool completely, then cut it into small cubes. To dry out the cubes you can spread them out on two large sheets pans and allow them to sit out on your counter for 24-48 hours or until dry. You can also place the sheet pans in a 300°F oven for 60 minutes or until dry and lightly toasted.
  • Set your eggs out so they can warm to room temperature. Finely dice 3 celery stalks, 1/4 of a white onion, 4 cloves of garlic, and a handful of parsley.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of light olive oil, Add 1lb of sausage and break it into smaller pieces. Add the chopped onion, celery, minced garlic, parsley, rosemary, sage, salt, and pepper. Stir and sauté until the vegetables are softened and the sausage is cooked through, which should take about 5-7 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl using a slotted spoon to minimize excess liquid.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the 3 tablespoons of butter. Then add the eggs and chicken stock and whisk until smooth.
  • In the large mixing bowl with the cooked sausage and vegetables, add the wet mixture and 8 cups of dried gluten-free cornbread cubes. Gently stir to ensure even distribution and to coat the mixture evenly.
    Transfer the mixture to a greased 7x10-inch baking dish or casserole dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 40 minutes. Remove the aluminum foil after the first 20 minutes to help the top to help the top become golden brown. Check on the stuffing at 35 minutes and remove if it has reached your desired doneness or allow it to cook longer if needed.
    Once baked, remove the stuffing from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
