Servings: 10
Ingredients
- 12 c. dried bread cubes
- 1 lb. ground sausage
- 1/2 c. butter
- 1 small onion diced
- 3 stalks celery diced
- 1 (8 oz.) pkg. mushrooms sliced

- pepper to taste
- 1 1/2 c. chicken broth or stock

Instructions
- Place dried bread cubes into a very large bowl; set aside.
- Brown sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, drain off the excess grease and pour cooked sausage over bread cubes.
- Melt butter in the same pan. Sauté onions, celery, mushrooms, and garlic, until onions are translucent and vegetables are softened. Pour vegetables into the bowl with bread cubes and cooked sausage.
- Top with fresh parsley, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add the chicken broth and beaten eggs; stir to combine. Pour dressing into a 6-7 quart slow cooker.
- Cover and cook on LOW for 3-4 hours.
Notes
Cook's Note: I purchased 2 loaves of French bread, cut them into bite-sized pieces, and baked them on two rimmed baking sheets at 300 degrees for 30 minutes, turning every ten minutes. Allow to cool completely before making stuffing.
