1 tablespoon unsalted butter
4 ounces sweet Italian turkey sausage, casings removed
1 cup mushroom, chopped
2 medium onions, chopped
3 celery ribs, chopped
1/2 cup celery leaves, chopped (from inner celery ribs)
1 lb reduced-calorie whole wheat bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes and dried overnight (or in the oven)
1/4 cup fresh parsley leaves, chopped
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning

  • In a big skillet, brown the sausage bits gently in half the butte, reduce heat to medium.
