Ingredients

  • 1 pkg. Jimmy Dean® Maple Flavor Pork Sausage Roll
    1½ cups chopped celery
    2 Granny Smith apples, cut into ½-inch cubes
    1 onion, chopped
    1 bag (14 ounces) cubed herb seasoned stuffing mix
    2 cups apple juice
    ¾ cup dried cranberries
    1 egg, lightly beaten
    ¾ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Cook sausage, celery, apples and onion in large stockpot over medium-high heat 8-10 minutes or until sausage is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.

2. Add stuffing mix, apple juice, cranberries and egg; mix just until blended.

3. Pour into greased 13x9-inch baking dish; cover.

4. Bake 45 minutes; sprinkle with pecans, if desired. Bake, uncovered, 15 minutes or until stuffing is thoroughly heated and nuts are lightly toasted.

Cook’s Tip: If you don’t have a stockpot or large pan, cook the sausage, celery, apples and onion in a skillet, then pour over stuffing mix in large bowl. Add remaining ingredients; stir just until blended. Bake as directed.
