Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) package ground breakfast sausage
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 3 cups water
- 0.5 cup butter
- 2 (6 ounce) packages dry bread stuffing mix
Method
- Place the sausage, celery, and onion in a skillet. Cook while stirring often until the sausage is browned and broken into small pieces, 5 to 7 minutes. Move the mixture to a plate with paper towels to drain the oil.
- Bring 3 cups of water to a boil in a large saucepan. Mix in the butter until it has dissolved. Add the dry stuffing mix, put the lid on, and take the pan off the heat. Leave it to sit for 5 minutes. Stir in the cooked sausage mixture until everything is well combined.
