Equipment

  • Slow Cooker My Cuisinart Slow Cooker / Multi-Cooker is on of my favorite appliances!
  • Large Skillet This large Anolon 12" Skillet is ideal for browning meats, cooking sauces and more!
  • Cutting Boards This 3-Pack of non-slip cutting boards are a fantastic tool for every home cook.

Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 lb. bulk Italian Sausage
  • 2 Tbsp. olive oil
  • 1 (8 oz. pkg.) baby Bella mushrooms roughly sliced and chopped
  • 1 (5 oz. pkg.) shiitake mushrooms roughly sliced and chopped
  • 1 medium yellow onion chopped
  • 1 medium apple peeled and diced
  • 2 ribs celery, chopped
  • 4 cups seasoned stuffing cubes
  • 3 cups cornbread stuffing cubes
  • 1/2 cup pecans roughly chopped
  • 1/3 cup fresh parsley chopped
  • 1 Tablespoon fresh sage minced
  • 2 (14.5 oz. cans) chicken broth
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions
 

  • In a large skillet, brown the sausage over medium high heat until no longer pink. Drain off any excess grease, and transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • In the same skillet, add the olive oil, and bring heat back up to medium high. Add both types of mushrooms, onion, apple and celery and sautee for 7-10 minutes or until tender. Transfer sauteed ingredients to the large bowl with the sausage.
  • To the bowl with the cooked ingredients, add both types of stuffing cubes, pecans, parsley, and sage. Stir all ingredients together to combine and gradually add the chicken broth to moisten the stuffing mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Oven: Spray a 9 x 13" baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Transfer stuffing mixture to prepared dish, and bake for 40-45 minutes at 350 degrees.

Notes

Slow Cooker: If cooking in a slow cooker, transfer mixture to the slow cooker, set on low for 3-4 hours. Stir 1-2x while cooking. Using a slow cooker is idea, especially on Thanksgiving or Christmas day. Using a slow cooker helps free-up valuable oven space.
