Add onion, mushrooms, and sage and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, 8-10 minutes. Add wine and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Let cool slightly.

MUSHROOM AND SAUSAGE STUFFING

Steps:

Using your hands, work to combine everything well -- really get in there and squish it up; it's fun! Add the remaining stock as needed to create a really moist mix. Taste and season with salt, if needed.
