"Here's a super way to savor roast turkey and stuffing without having to
cook the big holiday bird. The stuffing is hearty, and the meat is juicy and
tender." ~ Aura Lee Johnson Rinse turkey breast and pat dry.
Place with breast side up in a shallow baking dish.
Brush with butter. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees for 2 to 2 1/2 hours or
until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees. Cover loosely with foil to
prevent excess browning if necessary. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook sausage,
celery and onions until the sausage is browned and vegetables are tender;
drain.
Remove from the heat; add all remaining ingredients and mix well. Spoon into a
greased 3-quart casserole.
Cover and bake at 325 degrees for 1 hour. Serve with sliced turkey.
