GLUTEN FREE STUFFING

GLUTEN FREE STUFFING

Another healthy recipe for the holidays! THANKSGIVING just isn't the same without it.

INGREDIENTS: 1/2 cup REAL butter (or melted coconut oil) 1 1/2 cups chopped celery 8 cups cubed gluten free bread (I use bread that's a few days old) 1/2 - 1 pound gluten free sausage 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon pepper organic chicken broth or water as needed DIRECTIONS: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Brown and crumble sausage over medium heat. When fully cooked, remove sausage from pan and add butter, onion and celery. If there is a lot of grease from the sausage you can reduce the amount of butter. Cook onions and celery until onion is transparent (about 10 minutes). Mix in the remaining ingredients, including sausage and toss lightly. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. If stuffing is on the dry side, add chicken broth or water a few tablespoons at a time until it is to your liking. You don't want it too wet as gluten free bread is prone to sogginess and easily disintegrates. Place in greased 2 quart casserole dish and sprinkle a couple more Tablespoons of liquid over the top. Place lid or foil over the stuffing and bake for 45 minutes. *photo credit and adapted recipe: glutenfreebetty
