Cornbread Stuffing with Sage and Sausage
I used veggie smoked sausage for this recipe that I cut into cubes, but any sausage would work.

Ingredients
- 1 8x8 pan of cornbread, link to recipe
- 1 tablespoon oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 package vegetarian smoked sausage, cut into small cubes
- 1 tablespoon fresh sage, chopped fine
- 2-3 cups vegetable broth
- 1 butternut squash, diced and roasted
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
Directions
Cut cornbread into small 1 inch cubes. Lay out on a baking sheet and toast in a 300 degree oven until just browned and hard, set aside.
Heat a large oven safe pan over medium high heat. Add oil and onion, sauté for a couple of minutes. Add sausage and sauté until they begin to brown. Add sage to the pan and cubes of cornbread. Stir and then add broth a little at a time until mixture is moistened (you might not need all the broth, just until moist).Stir a few minutes, add salt and pepper to taste. Put pan in 400 degree oven and cook about 30-40 minutes until mixture is heated through. Remove from oven mix in squash and serve.








Love the addition of the smoked (veggie) sausage! Paired with the cornbread it’s such an innovative way to change up the usual stuffing!
My southern husband always insists that corn bread stuffing is the only way to go. I love the addition of the squash!
The squash is a new way for me and I plan to find out how good, it just has to be.
I love cornbread but I have yet to try a cornbread stuffing. The addition of butternut squash sounds great, I think I will try this recipe!
This is excellent! I made it tonight for Thanksgiving tomorrow. I used smoked turkey sausage (keeping it festive!) and we already have butternut squash in another dish, so I didn’t include it in this stuffing. I can’t wait to serve this tomorrow – I know my family will really enjoy it! Thanks so much for posting this!
