Consider your Thanksgiving stuffing handled!! If you're into Cornbread Stuffing with Sausage - this is the perfect recipe for you!
Ingredients
- 6 cups cornbread I used a store-bought mix, cubed

- ¼ cup parsley chopped
- 3 tablespoons sage chopped
- 3 tablespoons oregano chopped
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly cracked
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- 1 cup Monterey jack cheese shredded
Instructions
- To toast cornbread, bake at 400°F for 10 minutes until golden brown. Remove and reduce oven heat to 325°F
- Cook sausage, celery and onion in a large skillet over medium high heat for 8-10 minutes or until sausage is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently; drain excess fat. Spoon into a large bowl.
- Add cornbread, herbs and seasoning; mix lightly. Add broth and egg; mix just until blended. Stir in shredded cheese.
- Spoon into lightly greased 2-quart casserole or soufflé dish; cover and bake for 45 minutes or until thoroughly heated, uncovering after 35 minutes to brown the top. Serve as needed.
Notes
- I buy my cornbread either pre-made from the store or I use a store-bought mix! I’m not above a little bit of help from the market before the big feast!! Cornbread Stuffing with Sausage for EVERYONE!!
- You can skip the toasting step if you cube the cornbread up a few days ahead of time and let it dry out naturally.
