1/2 lb. sausage meat
1/2 c. onion, finely chopped
2 c. apple, diced
1 tsp. garlic, finely chopped
2 tsp. dried sage
Salt & pepper to taste
1/2 c. celery, diced
2 c. coarse fresh bread crumbs
1/2 c. fresh or canned chicken broth
1 egg, beaten
1/4 c. parsley, chopped
1 tbsp. butter

Heat a non-stick skillet and add the sausage meat, stirring with a spatula to break it up. Cook until lightly browned. Add the onion, apple, celery, garlic, sage, salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are wilted, about 5 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a mixing bowl. Add the bread crumbs, broth, egg and parsley. Blend well, checking the seasonings. Butter a baking dish and put the dressing in it. Bake uncovered for 30 minutes in the oven with the turkey. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
