Delicious Sausage Bread Stuffing

Wrote by Post Comment



I'm set for the holiday this year!  Yesterday evening I placed a serving bowl of my Flipped Sausage Bread Stuffing on the dinner table and my family thought it was the original stuffing recipe!

The advantage we have at Flip2Tasty is that we get to test various recipe ideas.  My healthy Sausage Bread Stuffing is low in calories, fat and points.  My husband's golden rule is, "if it doesn't have butter or fat then it's not going to have any flavor."   I was thrilled when he had it again for lunch and said, "it's so moist and I love the flavor!"  He didn't know that I removed all the butter! 

I also used a naturally low-sodium chicken stock instead of chicken broth to add more flavor. The reduced-fat sausage gives this stuffing an unexpected savory flavor.

My good friend Jill suggested an extra ingredient that I decided to try at the last moment—I'm glad I did, because it really adds to the recipe!  Let me know what you think!  Enjoy.

 To toast bread cubes:  Line baking sheet with foil.  Cut bread into 1/2 inch cubes.  Lay cubes on baking sheet in single layer.  Bake at 300 degrees for 23-25 minutes.  Cool.  Repeat process with remaining bread cubes.
