Ingredients
  

  • 3 heaping cups diced vegetables (onion, carrot & celery)
  • 6 cloves garlic minced or pressed
  • 3 tablespoons fresh sage finely chopped or 1 tablespoon dry
  • 3 tablespoons fresh rosemary finely chopped or 1 tablespoon dry
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, finely chopped or 2 teaspoons dry
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 prepared flax egg 1 tablespoon ground flax + ⅓ cup water
  • cups vegetable broth
  • 10 cups bread cubes of choice, stale or toasted about 12 oz
  • ½ batch Crispy Tofu Sausage optional

Instructions
 

  • Note-If using tofu sausage, make sure it's prepped in advance
  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a pan over medium heat, add vegetables and sauté for 5-7 minutes (add small splash of broth if needed for sticking). Add garlic and herbs, stir well and cook 1 minute longer. Remove from heat.
  • In a large bowl, add bread cubes and vegetable mixture to bowl and mix well. Pour 2½ cups of the broth over top and mix well.
  • Whisk together flax egg and 1 cup of broth and mix into the stuffing mixture. If using, mix in tofu sausage at this time as well.
  • Pour into a casserole dish (9x13 works well), cover with lid or foil. Bake for 40 minutes. Uncover and bake for 15 minutes longer. Enjoy!

Notes

Storage- This stuffing is best served fresh and made the day of. I would not recommend making it ahead of time as it may dry out if you try to reheat it. An extra ½-1 cup of broth may help, but I have not tested this.
