Stuffing isn’t just for that other end-of-the-year holiday. Christina Maiellano’s Sweet Apple Sausage Stuffing is savory and pairs well with poultry or even as a stand-alone side dish.

The resident of the 2500 block of South 10th Street uses whole-wheat bread along with tart Granny Smith apples as a change-up to the traditional version. While this meal may taste like it took hours, it is simple and will wow all of your holiday guests. SPR

Ingredients:

1 pound of sweet sausage, cut up with skin removed
1 box of turkey stuffing, prepared according to package directions
10 pieces of whole-wheat bread, cut into cubes
5 Granny Smith apples, diced
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, chopped
2 cloves of garlic, diced

Directions:

Heat the sausage in a large skillet on medium-high until cooked through. As the sausage cooks, prepare the stuffing and set it aside. Add the remaining ingredients to the skillet and sauté. When done, mix in the stuffing and serve.
