Emeril Lagasse's Mom's recipe for stuffing (or dressing). It's like a savory bread pudding and would make a fabulous side dish. If you can't find the Portuguese sausage, go ahead and sub in chorizo.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Put the bread into a large bowl and add the milk. Press the bread into the milk and let it stand until the milk is absorbed and the bread is soft, approx. 15 minutes.
- Heat 3 T olive oil in a large skillet, over med-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook, while stirring, until it's lightly browned, approx. 1 minute. Add the sausage and cook, while stirring, until browned, approx. 3 minutes. Add onions, bell peppers, celery and the bay leaf. Season with salt, crushed red pepper, and black pepper. Cook, while stirring occasionally, until the veggies are slightly softened, approx. 4 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring, until it is fragrant, approx. 30 seconds.
- Add the meat mixture to the bread mixture and stir it together so it's mixed well. Add the eggs and parsley. Stir to blend. Remove the bay leaf and discard.
- Grease a 9 x 13 inch baking dish, with the remaining tablespoon of oil. Pour the mixture into the pan and sread it evenly with a rubber spatula. Bake this until it gets bubbly and golden brown, approx. 1 hour. Remove it from the oven and serve warm.
