Old Fashioned Stuffing with Sausage & Bread
A lovely homemade stuffing recipe that’s sure to please the crowd or a family even on a normal Tuesday night – it’s that easy to do. For the bread you can use anything you have on hand from ends of your homemade bread, rolls, sandwich loaf or artisan loaf including Sourdough bread.
Homesteader Tip: If you grow celery or buy from the store you can easily chop the celery pieces up and freeze them in a baggie for future use. The celery can last up to two years. Make your own bone broth for extra health.
Pairs lovely with mashed potatoes, ham and mini cornbread muffins.
