• Add remaining ingredients to the mixing bowl and combine gently.
• If you're going to stuff a turkey, cool completely in the refrigerator first.
• To cook it as a separate dressing, spoon the mixture into a large casserole (13 x 9 or slightly larger), cover with aluminum foil and bake for 30- 45 minutes at 325, basting occasionally with cooking juices from the turkey or with reserved sausage fat, if needed.
• Uncover the pan for the last 10 minutes of cooking to brown.
• Serve hot or warm.
• Note: You may need to use additional broth (approximately one 14 ounce can) as necessary to adjust the moistness of the stuffing to your taste, or if there are insufficient drippings from your poultry.
• Note: To make these as individual stuffing muffins, add one egg to the mix before baking to help the muffins keep their shape.
