Instant Pot Sausage Stuffing
Instant Pot Sausage Stuffing

I don’t know about you, but I LOVE stuffing! Hopefully, by now you’ve learned that cooking your turkey stuffed with this stuff is a big NO, NO! You run the risk of contamination from the raw turkey in your stuffing, so now if I cook a turkey whole instead of a Spatchcocked Turkey , then I fill the cavity with aromatics (like cinnamon, apples, onions & herbs) to help flavor the bird.

Even though we don’t stuff our bird, we’d still like to have stuffing as a side, it’s just not Thanksgiving without it! So, enter the yummiest stuffing ever! I cooked it in the Instant Pot, but you can totally follow these instructions and cook on the stove top if you’d like!

Instant Pot Sausage Stuffing TIPS

  • Feel free to add or subtract any of the veggies or proteins, or even add your own ideas if you’d like! We love Chicken Apple Sausages at our house and love the added flavor and texture they add to this dish!
  • Make sure to scrape off ALL the brown bits on the bottom of the instant pot before sealing and pressure cooking or you will get a burn warning
  • Allow the pot to cool down a bit before sealing, and pressure cooking or you will get a burn warning

Non Instant pot  Sausage Stuffing Instructions

  1. Heat Olive oil in large skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over med-high heat.
  2. Add chopped onions, carrots & celery and a little bit of salt. Cook for 2-3 min.
  3. Add sliced mushrooms, garlic & fresh herbs, cook 2-3 mins.
  4. Push veggies to the sides, creating space to add Sage Sausage and brown.
  5. Add Chicken apple sausages. Cook 2-3 minutes
  6. Add Chicken Broth (you will need about 3 cups of broth instead of 1.5 cups) & stir, cook 2-3 min
  7. Turn heat off, add stuffing cubes & stir. Cover for a few minutes.
  8. Preheat oven to 325. Loosely pack Stuffing in a buttered Casserole dish and top with Fried onions. Bake until crispy 20-40 minutes.

Instant Pot Sausage Stuffing

This stuffing has such a depth of flavor that is only this intense because it is cooked in the instant pot.  The pressure cooking enhances all the flavors like it was cooked for hours! Doesn’t take up a pot on the stove either!

  • Add stuffing mix, stir.  
  • Add chicken broth and stir.  Make sure to scrap the bottom of the pot to deglaze the pot.  Turn off Saute mode, allow the pot to cool slightly. Then cover and seal your instant pot.  Set to high pressure and 12 minutes.

Notes

*When scrapping the bottom of the pot, make sure to get all browned bits off of the bottom, otherwise, you’ll get a burn warning during pressure cooking stage.  Also, allow the pot to cool down before moving to the pressure cooking stage.

I’ve neglected my little food blog and social me I’ve neglected my little food blog and social media accounts for so long. Besides going through a couple years of having babies. Building a home, selling a home having another baby, moving etc, I’ve also maybe never felt like the name I chose out of desperation for a food blog name really fit with what I wanted to post about or about me. I’ve been really trying to figure out what I want to share and how to share it and give the best value to people. I’ve always loved gardening, loved canning and preserving food, I love teaching my kids to cook and love food, i love all sorts of cuisine and I love throwing dinner parties. With our new home I now have a place I can entertainer more, a prettier kitchen to photograph and film in, a very large garden with space to have an outdoor dining table to literally eat Farm to Table. I want to focus my blog on basically all of that. Teaching and learning more gardening techniques, learning more about food preservation, entertaining year round and cooking with my kids. 

I’d love YOUR input in what I should change the name to… please drop your ideas below. If I pick yours I’ll make you some caramels or smoked salsa or something I can mail you if you aren’t local to me. 

Thank you! #newbrand #farmtotable #cookingwithkids #foodpreservation #dinnerparties #helpme

Living here we will never have to worry about getting pinched for not having green! 🤣

The exterior color scheme has had my stomach in knots ever since we chose it. I knew the other homes on our street were all going to be white and so our home would look drastically different. I wasn’t sure how it would all turn out, but I LOVE IT 😍! One day we’d love to do copper gutters and coordinating fascia and soffits. But I even love the white. 

We just had our final walk through before our final inspection!! I can’t believe the day has come that we finally will be moving in! March 24th cannot come fast enough!

Last night we decorated gingerbread houses. I was Last night we decorated gingerbread houses. I was shocked at how much indi managed to cram on her house while the boys didn’t as much. We like to say “Indi understood the assignment”. Lol my favorite comment of the night came from Maverick “This is the best Christmas ever!” Which helped remind me why I kill myself to homemake these gingerbread houses every year and allow them to make a complete utter mess … all in the name of family time, Christmas time and making memories! #gingerbreadhouse #christmasmemories #candyhouse #sugaroverload #christmas21
So incredibly grateful for this cute and crazy fam So incredibly grateful for this cute and crazy family of mine! While visiting CA my good friend @amberrasberry was so kind to squeeze us in and take some awesome family photos at the place where @shields_word and I had our engagement photos taken over 8 years ago @applehillofficial @highhillranch_applehill ! We might not have gotten one photo where everyone was looking at the camera at the same time, but that’s ok by me! Our life is crazy, hectic and full of energy! I’m grateful that these photos truly capture my children’s personalities and this wonderful stage of life we are currently in! @amberrasphotography did a fantastic job and I’m so grateful for her and her talents! I wish you all a wonderful holiday season and hope you too are embracing the chaos and finding joy in it! #thankful #familyphotos #applehill #highhillfarms #familychaos #thanksgiving

WARNING my feed might start getting filled with va WARNING my feed might start getting filled with various Salmon posts! I have a freezer full of fresh caught Alaska Coho Salmon. 

Tonight I made us a spicy salmon poke bowl with sushi rice, pickled carrots, cabbage, avocado, edamame and cucumbers. I made the kids a honey glazed pan seared salmon and they ate all the same items in our bowl. 

Do you have a favorite salmon recipe? I have a few but would love to try more! Let me know yours below👇🏼!!

It’s PEACH TIME! Our f#very first fruiting in ou It’s PEACH TIME! Our f#very first fruiting in our peach tree and our last time we will get to enjoy peaches from this tree as we are moving in a few months! So glad we got to enjoy the fruits of our labor with this tree! Also, if you have small children and plan to harvest while pregnant, I HIGHLY recommend planting an “easy pick” pruned peach tree! I only needed a ladder for like 20 peaches max. My kids were able to pick and reach most of them! #parentwin
