Categories     Side Dish

Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

16 oz dried bread cubes ((see instructions))
1 large sweet onion, (diced)
4 stalks celery, (diced)
2 large carrots, (small diced)
6 cloves garlic, (minced)
1 large sweet, crisp apple ((like Fuji), small diced)
1/2 cup sage leaves, (chopped fine (1/2 cup before chopping))
4 sprigs thyme, (leave removed)
2 tbsp fresh rosemary (chopped)
3/4 tsp black pepper, (more to taste)
1/2 tsp salt, (more to taste)
2/3 cup vegan butter (+ more for greasing pan and topping)
14 oz vegan sausage ((we used Lightlife))
2-3 cups vegetable broth

Steps:

  • *You need stale bread in order to properly make this recipe. In order to do this, buy a loaf of Italian bread, cut it up into small 1/2" cubes and place on a tray in a single layer to dry out (get stale). This takes about a day or two. Once your bread is ready, then you can proceed with the rest of the recipe.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Chop up all vegetables and herbs.
  • Add 2 tablespoons of the butter to a large stock pot over medium heat.
  • Add vegan sausage, 1 tablespoon of the sage and 1 sprig of thyme leaves. Cook the sausage according to the package, chopping it up while cooking until crumbly.
  • Remove the sausage to a plate.
  • In the same pot, add the remaining butter.
  • Once melted, add in onions, celery, apples, and carrots. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Add in garlic and herbs, salt and pepper, and cook for 5 more minutes.
  • Add in the cooked vegan sausage and stir together, cook for another minute or two.
  • Add bread cubes and 1 cup of broth. Gently toss together. Turn off heat.
  • Add In more broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring after each, until your mixture is soft. You may not use all the broth. *You do NOT want soggy bread or it won't cook properly.
  • Place mixture in a lightly buttered 9x13 casserole dish and place a few pats of butter on top.
  • Cover with foil (or a baking sheet if you avoid foil).
  • Bake for 35 minutes. The uncover and cook for 15 more or until the bread pieces on top are golden brown.
  • Remove from oven and let set 5 minutes before serving. Best served warm.

VEGAN APPLE SAUSAGE STUFFING



Vegan Apple Sausage Stuffing image

This is a veganized version of a favorite stuffing recipe in my family. When I became a vegan a few years ago, my mom and I converted all of our favorite Thanksgiving recipes, and this one turned out especially great in vegan form. You could easily make in non-vegan by using real sausage instead. This makes quite a bit, so feel free to halve the recipe.

VEGETARIAN SAUSAGE APPLE STUFFING



Vegetarian Sausage Apple Stuffing image

I created this stuffing one Thanksgiving for a dear friend who had become a vegetarian, and said he missed many of the traditional dishes. It was based on my own stuffing recipe I had made for years. He said that it was as good as any non-vegetarian stuffing he had ever had, and others have said that also. You can leave out the soy patties completely (actually, I usually do) and still have a great stuffing. Hope you enjoy it!

Time 1h5m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 package seasoned dried cornbread stuffing mix or 1 package fresh crumbled bread (see note)
1/2 teaspoon salt
fresh ground black pepper
2 teaspoons bell seasoning (see note)
1/4 cup margarine or 1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup diced celery
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 -3 vegetarian breakfast sausage patties, chopped
1 large apple, peeled,cored and chopped
2/3 cup diced pecans, walnuts (or any other nut you like)
2 cups water
2 teaspoons vegetarian chicken flavored broth mix or 2 vegetable bouillon cubes (see note)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350.
  • Spray a large casserole dish with non-stick spray.
  • In a large bowl, add the stuffing crumbs, salt, pepper and bell's seasoning.
  • Toss to mix well.
  • In a large skillet, heat the butter, margarine or oil over medium heat.
  • Add the celery and saute for a minute or two.
  • Then add the onions, and saute another few minutes.
  • Add the chopped sausage patties, the apple, and the nuts, and keep sauteeing until the onions are transluscent, the apples are just barely cooked through and the nuts are lightly toasted.
  • Remove from the heat and pour this whole mixture into the stuffing crumb mixture.
  • Toss all together to blend well.
  • Boil the water and add the broth mix or cubes to the water and stir to dissolve.
  • Add about half of the broth to the stuffing mixture and stir.
  • Keep adding broth and mixing it in until the whole mixture is moistened to the stuffing consistency you like.
  • Then add a little more of the broth to compensate for evaporation while it's baking.
  • You don't want this too mushy.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings.
  • Dump the whole bowl of stuffing into the baking dish and spread out evenly.
  • You can cover it at this point and refrigerate it until you're ready to bake it.
  • Bake at 350 for about 30-40 minutes, until heated throughout and a bit crispy on top.
  • If you need to keep it warm in the oven, keep it covered with a pan cover or aluminum foil.
  • NOTES: Bell's Seasoning: Bell's seasoning is a fantastic chicken and stuffing seasoning mix that's been around for ages.
  • I've seen it touted as Martha Stewart's secret stuffing ingredient, but my family's been using it forever, long before she was Martha Stewart!
  • If you can't find it, it's a mixture of rosemary, oregano, sage, ginger, marjoram, thyme and pepper.
  • If you can't get Bell's, use a mixture to your taste of whatever of those seasonings you can get your hands on, and go a little bit heavy on the sage.
  • Bread Mixture: You want the stuffing mix that is just the cornbread crumbs or dried cubes, you don't want a Stovetop type mix.
  • You can substitute 1/2 to 3/4 of a loaf of fresh bread, cubed, mixed with and 8x8" pan of crumbled cornbread.
  • If using fresh bread, you'll need much less broth, and you might want to go a bit heavier on the seasonings.
  • Taste first and see.
  • Soy"sausage" patties: You can omit this completely if you desire and still have a great stuffing.
  • Broth Mix: This is my secret to vegetarian cooking.
  • The kosher broth mixes come in powder form in jars, and can be found in the kosher food section of the supermarket.
  • Carmel Kosher and Manischewitz are two of the more popular brands.
  • There are no mean products in them whatsover, and they are not only vegetarian, they are vegan too (I checked).
  • They come in chicken, beef, onion, mushroom, and other flavors.
  • And I personally like them better than the kinds that have meat in them.
  • If you don't want to use them, then a vegetable broth mix would work fine.
  • But I like the richness they can give to many vegetarian dishes.

Yield 10 links

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
½ cup onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 cup apple, minced
1 cup baby bella mushroom, minced
1 teaspoon fennel seeds
1 teaspoon dried rosemary

15 oz cannellini bean, 1 can, drained and rinsed
½ cup chickpeas, canned, rinsed and drained, or cooked
1 cup vital wheat gluten, or all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook for about 4 minutes, until fragrant and the onion is translucent.
  • Add the apples, mushrooms, fennel seeds, rosemary, sage, maple syrup, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for about 10 minutes, until the mixture is tender and the liquid released from the mushrooms has evaporated. Remove from the heat and let cool.

  • Bring a large pot of water to a simmer. Plunge the wrapped sausages in the water and simmer for 45-50 minutes, until the sausages are firm.
  • Remove from the water and let cool for about 5 minutes, then unwrap.

Tips:

  • To achieve the best texture for your stuffing, use a combination of fresh bread cubes and day-old bread cubes. This will give your stuffing a crispy exterior and a soft, moist interior.
  • If you don't have any vegetable broth on hand, you can use water instead. However, vegetable broth will add more flavor to your stuffing.
  • Be sure to cook your sausage until it is browned all the way through. This will help to prevent any bacteria from growing in your stuffing.
  • If you are using fresh apples, be sure to peel and core them before dicing them. You can also use dried apples, but be sure to soak them in water for at least 30 minutes before using them.
  • Feel free to add other ingredients to your stuffing, such as chopped nuts, dried cranberries, or celery.

Conclusion:

This vegan apple sausage stuffing is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for Thanksgiving or any other special occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a vegan stuffing recipe, be sure to give this one a try.
